Fresh from their emphatic 66-7 victory over Italy, the back-to-back Rugby World Cup champions enjoyed a meeting with tennis sensation Carlos Alcaraz.

Footage circulating on social media showed Alcaraz chatting with a star-studded Springbok contingent, including captain Siya Kolisi, Malcolm Marx, Damian de Allende, Jesse Kriel, Jasper Wiese and Pieter-Steph du Toit.

Alcaraz, meanwhile, celebrated a historic triumph at the Rolex Paris Masters, defeating world No.4 Ben Shelton in straight sets.

The Rolex Paris Masters shared the footage on its official X account, accompanied by the caption:

“Different sports, same champion mentality. Carlos Alcaraz meets the Springboks.”
