Spanish tennis star Carlos Alcaraz has dedicated his recent victory at the Valencia Open to the victims of the devastating floods that hit the region last week.

The flooding, caused by heavy rains from the DANA storm, has left at least 13 people dead and caused widespread damage to property and infrastructure.

Alcaraz, who hails from the nearby town of El Palmar, said he was "deeply saddened" by the tragedy and wanted to do his part to help those affected.

"I'm dedicating this victory to the victims of the flooding," Alcaraz said after his win. "My thoughts are with them and their families during this difficult time."

The 19-year-old tennis player, who is currently ranked No. 1 in the world, said he would be donating a portion of his winnings to relief efforts and would also be volunteering his time to assist with the cleanup and recovery process.

"I'm going to help in any way I can," Alcaraz said. "I want to do my part to make a difference and help the people of Valencia rebuild their lives.

Alcaraz's victory at the Valencia Open is his second ATP Tour title of the year. He is now considered one of the top contenders for this year's US Open, which begins next week.
