MELBOURNE, Jan 16 (Reuters) - ‌Carlos Alcaraz said winning the Australian Open to complete the career Grand Slam ‌was the main goal of a season in which Juan Carlos Ferrero is ‌not by his side as head coach for the first time since he turned professional at 15.

The world number one split with Ferrero last month, abruptly ending a seven-year partnership that delivered 24 titles including six ‍Grand Slam crowns.
