Still cannot believe I witnessed this epic duel yesterday live in front of my TV. I love this sport
Winning a five setter in a final against one of the GOAT on centre court…simply shows the mental strength of Alcaraz, he exhibited no fear which was simply amazing 👏
One of the best grand slam finals of recent years.
The athleticism of Alcaraz is off the chart.
What a beast was awaken after 1 set, scenic fear disappeared and he started to play his best game. All respect to Novak as well, he is an unbelievable athlete, favoulous tennis player.
If theres one thing Novak does better than anyone else, its stepping up in all the big points. Not yesterday though, Carlos came up with even bigger shots when it got close. Honestly one of the best finals I’ve seen since the 2008 final
The physical and mental strength of Carlos Alcaraz at age 20 is unbelievable, especially against Djokovic!!🥶😤💪🏆🎾🇪🇸
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of watching Carlos play tennis – he was born to do this! Bravo Carlos!
A huge congratulations to Carlitos Alcaraz for winning Wimbledon! What a match! El nuevo rey!👑.
Go Carlos!❤❤❤
I had palpitations when Alcaraz was serving for the championship at 5-4 in the 5th set. I felt that Novak, being a tough nut to crack could stage a comeback. Then, as it unfolded I realised so was Alcaraz! Sending congratulations to both champions from Malaysia 🇲🇾
I was 100% sure that Djokovic was gonna win. When he took the first set so easily, I almost lost interest. But what a turnaround it was by Carlos!!! He played some incredible and risky shots throughout the match. He was calm and fearless, and that’s why he won the match.
Nunca había visto en partido así en mi vida el mejor de la historia es increíble el nivel que tienen estos dos
Alcaraz es una bestia solo el pudo ganarle a Djokovic en su casa
This was one of the greatest tennis matches I’ve ever watched. The dedication and skill displayed on the court by these two is unreal
For Alcaraz to play as mature as he did is remarkable, especially in the most pivotal moments of the 5th set! Long may his talent shine on the tennis world.. I finally believe we are now ushering into a new era of greatness
That last game played by Alcaraz was INSANE. 0-15 dropshot, lob, drop volley, close it out. Boom.
Finally someone found the answers to Djokovic here.
And so the game transforms.
I really didn’t expect Carlos to win this, especially after the first set. just proves how phenomenal he is. many more slams to come for sure
This match Carlitos shown us how he plays against Novak, I think most players if they lost first set in 6-1 to Novak, they probably would be destroyed, but Carlitos keeps fighting by sending the ball side to side until Novak felt tired, that’s the returning point, he really made it
Que par de titanis ,,dos guerreros 💪💪que partidazo , que regalo . No me canso de mirara y mirar este partido . Gracias campeones . Felicitaciones a los dos . Alcaraz nos mantendrá pegados a la pantalla ❤❤
What a rare moment we don’t see djokovic pushed to those limits all the time in games what a match I think the best I ever seen in years
Alcaraz Changing tactics from second set. Instead of flat overhitting, he put heavy topspin forehands, variety, extended rallies. He wore down Novak’s forehand in forehand duels. And in last game dared to lob and volley. Ice in veins.
It can be argued that this is the first challenger for Novak who’s of the caliber of Big 3 but younger, something that Federer contended with throughout his career in the form of Rafa and Novak. Glad someone finally stepped it up. Go win some more Carlitos 🎉❤. Great match by both of them.
In the tiebreaker of the second set 7:38, Novak failed to convert on two consecutive backhand shots when he had set point, while Carlos, on the other hand, hit a stunning backhand return on Novak’s serve to take the second set. Such shots are rarely seen, and that moment seemed to be the pivotal point in this remarkable final. It’s astonishing to note that prior to this match, Novak had never lost a Grand Slam match (with a record of 78-0) when he was one set ahead. Carlos’s performance was truly remarkable and extraordinary.
The second set was the turning point in this match. Its evident that Carlos refused to lose that set by going for his shots and playing fearlessly and the drop shots were just sublime
Carlos does not miss a play. His court coverage is on another level. His youth really showed compared to Novak. Carlos’ quick acceleration and forehand w the topspin is unreal
I really don’t know how he pulled this off. Playing against one of the best players of all time, in a Wimbledon Final on centre court, and getting off to the worst possible start by losing the first set that badly… Any one of those factors would be too much for 99% of players, the mental strength at his age is just unbelievable.
Asi como en su dia lo fue Hewitt, luego Roger, y luego Rafa y Novak, es muy probable que Alcaraz este dando un paso evolutivo en el deporte, elevando la vara a todo nivel (técnica, mental y fisicamente). Esto no le quita nada de mérito a Djokovic, peleo hasta el final (perdió en 5 sets, no fue una paliza), contra un jugador que viene a marcar el futuro del tenis. Grande Carlos!
I still can´t believe Alcaraz only had 6 grass games under his belt before Queens – considering it´s the fastest and most difficult surface. I think the winners history tells it all
This guy is a gem.
He’s already a man, phisically, mentally and he learns fastely.
He really could do the history of this sport, hoping to watch him without phisical problems.
As an italian, i hope that Jannik can battle with Carlos in the future
Carlos has a complete game with no weakness. His court speed is incredible and hitting tough shots on the run makes him great.
A huge congratulations to Carlitos Alcaraz for winning Wimbledon! What a match! El nuevo rey!👑.
Go Carlos!❤❤❤
The most amazing part to me is that Alcaraz defied so many statistics – djokovic being 47-1 after winning first set, djokovic not losing at Wimbledon for years, djokovic having a 14 winning streak in tiebreaks – on a surface where he has only played 4 tournaments. At Wimbledon. The final. Against a GOAT. He has no right to be this mentally strong at his age. Future goat right here 🔥
36 years and performing like a horse!! 🤯 My respect for Novak grew exponentially!!!!
The last time Djoker looked so unsettled and playing catch up in most rallies was the Roland Garros final against Wawrinka. The passing shots from Alcaraz in the 5th are so reminiscent of Wawrinka’s in his final set of that final.
This one was for the history books, what a moment! Alcaraz deserves all the praise in this world and then some.
Carlos is an absolutely special player; he has an unrivalled combination of precocious mental resilience, physical strength, blinding speed, awesome versatility – both in shot variety and surface adaptability – boldness and incredible agility (balance and coordination). The way he fought back after the first set against this past decade’s King of Wimbledon and one of the all-time greats was truly inspiring. Some of his steely looks of determination at the most clutch moments of the match were very reminiscent of those from his rival across the net; especially Novak’s famous “I may lose but I’ll never be conquered” grin and nod when down 15-40 and 3-5 in the 5th set of the 2011 USO SF vs Federer. Sorry to Novak’s fans, it must be a painful one to lose, but there’s a bit of karmic balancing with a number of supremely close Wimbledon epics he wound up on the winning side of (2018 SF vs Rafa, 2014 and 2019 Fs vs Roger).
Cómo no emocionarse con tremendo jugador, es simplemente único!
I hope Alcaraz will have at least as much success as Roger, Rafa or Djokovic had in their careers. This young guy is so dedicated, humble and hardworking, he deserves all the best. And he’s arguably the most fun to watch player since a very long time.
Es increible cómo domina tantos registros. Es un tenista puramente ofensivo, por eso sorprende lo increiblemente bien que defiende cuando le toca hacerlo. Viendo su nivel en todas las superficies, su edad, su mentalidad, su abanico de registros tenisticos, lo bien asesorado que está por su staff y familia… solo puedo decir que lo único que puede evitar que Alcaraz sea el tenista más laureado de la historia, son las lesiones.
Congrats, Alcaraz, for achieving such a Herculean feat. Alcaraz is constantly improving. He only had a few matches on grass, as well. His coach, Ferrero, has done a great job. Alcaraz is going to be something, special.
I have not ever seen Novak so much helpless, as against Alcatraz. Amazing talent! Such a powerful ground strokes! He made Djokovic run all around the court and eventually giving up. He broke through the defence of Nole.
The clarity and presence of mind Alcarez showed in some of the most crucial periods in the match is amazing. Cheeky drop shots. Unexpected shots putting Djokovic on the wrong foot. Amazing
That look at 17:53 by Djokovic 😮😮😮 says it all. Amazing by Alcarez. What a masterpiece of a match. Bravo both gladiators 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Después de Nadal porfin otro español a la altura para ser el #1, felicidades el futuro promete y mucho 👏
The level of tennis in this match was almost unbelievable. Novak & Carlos both pulled out all the stops, but in the end Carlos just had that extra edge–I call it “young man energy”–that put him over. I honestly can’t believe how precise his placement was on some of those insanely difficult passing shots. Superb tennis by both finalists.
It’s so tough to hit winners against Alcaraz with his youth and speed, as well as his hunger to win. He really never gives up on a play.
This was prediccted once more by Awakenbeerus.
That roar from the crowd everytime Alcaraz played a masterful point was sending shockwaves through my spine, what a joy must have been to be in that stadium.
Admittedly, I haven’t watched much tennis in recent years…but after reading about this match, I wanted to see the highlights. Honestly, I’m blown away by these two and the absolute brilliance of their play. It’s almost inconceivable to me that two players could sustain this level of precision, physical effort, and mental sharpness over the length of this match. I’m sorry, but there’s no other skill sport that even vaguely compares to this range of athleticism throughout a contest. Most striking to me was the mental tenacity and strategic sharpness of these two players. Sure, making some of these shots physically was impressive, but the moves and counter moves on some of the points—while playing at maximum physical effort—was beyond anything I’ve seen in any other sport for a long time. I might just be becoming a tennis fan with Alcaraz’s career ahead of him. Here’s hoping he continues to have opponents worthy of him.
Amazing plays from both. Congrats Carlos on his first Wimbledon GS, I’m sure there will be more to come as he just turned 20 this year.
I was so scared when Novak was up 6-5 in the second set tiebreak because he’s been lights-out all tournament in tiebreaks. Carlos beat unbelievable odds, all congratulations to him
Alcaraz is just unbelievably amazing player… I’m sure he will many more grand slams.. to play against Djoko in Wimbledon final and winning is just unbelievable.. hats off Alcara
A prince turns into a king at Wimbledon. What a comeback by Alcaraz against the great Djokovic.
