I remember watching this game, this was the game that actually cemented Alcaraz as the new sensation and boosted his confidence beyond imagination. Props to Novak for competing at this level against a teenage phenom who happens to be 16 years younger than him with more energy, (stamina? ) and sublime form. Alcaraz family and spanish fans were more thrilled to witness this win against Djokovic than to Nadal.

I am old generation, I root for Novak. Although Alcaraz is the favourite, my heart is with Nole.

[@thenagagooner]

Wow im super excited for the final

[@roccocicoria4888]

Mostro totale. La più letale palla corta della storia. Colpi vincenti in ogni posizione. Padronanza del gioco a rete. Una condizione fisica eccezionale. La testa di chi è destinato ad essere numero uno per gli anni a venire. Se la testa tiene questo è imbattibile.

[@keiji5805]

I hope we will have a match like that!

[@govindarajannatesan7013]

Djokovic is not just a tennis great He is a very great human being too

[@doculam]

LOL Im guessing you think Hitler was very great human being too then

[@kittichot2866]

Still exited everytime watching this match...Alcaraz is born for being the world #1 tennis only.

[@espacespr6557]

Not a Carlos fan, but outplaying Djokovic the way he did in this match… Is unbelievable for a kid who isn’t even in his prime yet.

[@TUYENNGUYEN-xz6wg]

Hope you both have a perfect match today❤ I love you both

[@michaela8937]

What a match! 👏👏

[@djokadjokic379]

In this narrow victory, we saw 87 shots from Alcaraz and 7 shots from Djokovic. What a realistic depiction of what happens on the tennis court.

[@savsav5264]

Alcaraz had 51 winners and won 72% of the points from an offensive position. You wanted to see a bunch of his unforced errors instead?

[@QK_Engineer]

its cuz alcaraz plays the way djok wishes he could. alcaraz has much more natural power and a willingness to hit an offensive shot

[@Fraudkovic]

Tell fraudovic to hit more winners then

[@ssdravidian]

Even if Djokovich lost this match...he hit only 7 winners in this entire match??...it was a very close match, not like Alcaraz devastatingly won it ..

[@Fraudkovic]

@@ssdravidian 24 winners from Djokovic and 51 from alcaraz . So that's why you see the disparity .

[@greatsh1nob15]

Alcaraz is so stable on the clay and can switch directions whenever its amazing

[@greatsh1nob15]

@richardransome6227 he is indeed the goat

[@i_am_so_hungry8680]

Alcaraz was amazing ! He showed a perfect game. His technology is indestructibly cool!

[@moneyboss777]

So Carlitos beat him before Wimbledon?

Beat Nadal first and then Djokovic afterwards here

[@GaneshPrakashofficial]

Who is seeing this before Wimbledon final 2023

[@IzakD8]

Wasn't this like one of Djokovic's first tournaments back after being banned for half a year?

[@savsav5264]

He had played for a month before Madrid.

[@IzakD8]

@@savsav5264 Still, he was banned for a good amount of time. So he could have still been rusty and not in tip top shape. This Roland Garros match is gonna be intense. I think Novak's taking it though. I can't see it in 3, so either in 4 or 5. Most likely 5 I think.

[@samlpq]

Alcarez has huge future ahead. One of the finest player he will be for sure .

Amazing alcaraz, his forehand is just a 🚀 launcher !! It will be way different with Nole in 3 sets Match on Friday, anyhow the match will be just 🔥 !!

first djocovik is not the best player ever. may be one of the best . but he will never be the best eve if wins 30 grandslams. because character has lot of value in tennis.

Alcaraz is much better today than a year ago, and yet he won. Djokovic will have a very difficult match, but anything could happen. 60/40 for Alcaraz.

[@SebastianSaavedra28]

In what he is better?, because now he has more pressure than the last year…

[@MadmanGoneMad2012]

Pressure got to Alcaraz. And Novak has said it before since getting the weeks no.1 record: only grand slams matter to him nowadays.

[@Fackyo44]

I think Carlos is going to beat Novak in the finals at Wimbledon

[@martacccc689]

Me too...

[@ChrisTennis]

Incredible performance

[@JezzaSezza]

This match was close asf. Djokovic is a different type of beast in Grand Slams. The mental giant will humble Alcaraz

[@savsav5264]

Alcaraz already is humble, and he turned 19 the day before this match.

[@NamTran-xc2ip]

Hes a teenager here lol. Now #1 with a GS surely a harder opponent

[@samuelwhibley9590]

i feel life this will be an amazing match but you can see from some of the drop shots that djokovitch isn’t at the same lvl of physical fitness that he used to be a match when he was in his prime would have been much more dominant for him
