Carlos Alcaraz was game when we asked him about holiday gift ideas for some of his fellow tour-mates earlier this month.

He was also a good sport when we gave him some boxes, tape and wrapping paper for our special Gift Wrapping Challenge.

The uber-talented Spaniard may not have the gift of wrapping in his arsenal, but he gave us plenty of fun answers during the simultaneous questionaire.

On the other side of the coin is Jessica Pegula. If the American's tennis career doesn't pan out, she could do worse than interning at Santa's workshop.

"This one isn't showing my true colors, I'd have to repair," she said after the second package she wrapped wasn't up to her standard.

When asked which player of the four participants would be the best gift-wrapper, Emma Navarro, Ben Shelton and Carlos Alcaraz all selected Pegula.

"I mean, to be honest, I probably would have picked myself..." Pegula said with a laugh.

Pegula's full wrap session, in the YouTube clip above, is well worth your time as Christmas approaches.
