It's amazing how often people underestimate this kid. Early this year (or was it late last year 🤔) ATP released a video where they were asking players who is going to win one or more grand slams this year, and just ONE of the players mentioned Carlitos (it was Ben Shelton). I didn't see a single person on social media predicting that Carlitos would win Wimbledon, even after witnessing how quickly he got comfortable on grass at Queen's. I had a strong feeling that if Carlitos could somehow make it to the final, he would've had plenty of experience on grass, and given the incredible rate at which he learns, I predicted that he'd win Wimbledon regardless of who his opponent turned out to be in the final. And that is exactly what happened. You can never count this kid out. If you're gonna bet against him, do so at your own peril. If Carlitos can stay healthy and relatively injury-free for the next decade and a half, I predict he'll at least match the Big 3's records in grand slams.

[@yanair2091]

[@shyan042688]

One thing I've noticed over and over again throughout 2023 is that, whenever Carlitos is faced with an obstacle that seems insurmountable, he finds a way through. I am absolutely blown away by this kid's strategic prowess and his resourcefulness. Earlier this year in Buenos Aires Jarry was looking absolutely unstoppable with his huge serves and ultra-aggressive returns and powerful groundstrokes. Given that Carlitos' serve wasn't the best, and given that Jarry's serves looked virtually unreturnable, it didn't seem likely that he would be able to make any inroads in Jarry's service games. He did lose the first set to Jarry, but then, from the second set on, you could see how he was adapting and how much sharper his focus was, eventually bageling Jarry in the third set. Then, before the Indian Wells final, Medvedev was looking almost invincible with his 19-0 win streak. Most of the weapons Carlitos could, in principle, use to hurt Medvedev (e.g., drop shots, volleys) proved entirely ineffective in Medvedev's encounter with Djokovic earlier in Dubai. Shockingly, Carlitos didn't just Medvedev's streak, he absolutely demolished Medvedev. The way he played that match was, strategically speaking, absolutely flawless. From that day onwards, I promised myself never to bet against this kid. He not only has incredible power, speed, agility, and touch, he is also an absolute genius when it comes to problem-solving in real time.

Alcaraz, like Federer, when Roger won his titles from 2003 to 2008, benefited from great timing. Nadal, and Djokovic weren’t all court players until 08, maybe even 2010. Alcaraz has a chance, with an aging Novak, and Rafa, to do what Roger did, and is to take advantage of timing. In a couple of years, or even three years, Alcaraz will be 23 or 24, Novak and Rafa won’t be on the tour. Tell me, who stops Alcaraz? I say he will win more majors, but there will be no strength of competition. From 2009 to 2020, there was fierce competition from three to four players. Carlos is talented, but his numbers of majors will be inflated due to timing. Let’s hope he takes advantage of it.

[@1450JackCade]

Novak is NOT the GoAT, that is Federer. Why? Because Federer changed the game and Novak and Nadal followed his example. He invented the new mode not them. Next, Federer faced SIGNIFICANTLY greater competition than Novak did. Fed had to contend with much greater talent on the tour before Rafa and Novak (5 and 6 years younger) came on, but then he confronted two all time greats, arguably the #3 and #2 (respectively) greatest of all time. Novak for most of his career faced a MUCH older Federer who it took him YEARS to vanquish and a slightly diminished Rafa. The rest of the field was FAR weaker than the one Federer dominated before 2008 (when Nadal started breaking through on non-clay courts and Novak started to come into his own). Many are ignorant of that time because they are kids, but 2003-08 had some great players: Agassi and Sampras, though old, were still playing; Roddick, Hewitt, Safin (perhaps the second biggest under achiever in men's tennis history next to Agassi), Del Po, Ferrero, Moya, Ferrer, Moya, Nalbandian, Coria, Goran, Davydenko, Ljubicic, and many more some I forgot. Many of these players were in their prime when Roger arrived to crush them. By contrast, Novak has been able to beat the young contenders as they arrive, he begins with an advantage, and the kids have not been able to overcome it for a decade, which indicates a remarkable weakness in men's tennis. Alcaraz might just about to be going on a run that crushes all Novak's and Roger's records. As for Rafa as the GoAT, nope. Why not? If not for clay, the most idiosyncratic surface, he wouldn't be in the conversation. He dominated one surface, was very competitive on other surfaces for a few years, had a brief resurgence and is probably going to be retiring soon. His knees and legs in general, are going to give out on him. The sad thing is he's probably going to have issues in older age, lets hope not.

It's to soon to compare him with big 3 after just one match, you never know what future brings to you.

[@averma12]

I would assume filming in practice would be going on forever, not as blatantly as Carlos' dad.

[@nangephriam1211]

Medvedev also beat the GOAT in the final of the US Open. He did the unthinkable. Djokovic this time looks exhausted and play badly and Alcaraz seems to get motivated after winning the second set and sail through. Djokovic needs to rest properly. He will win a few more big titles before he retires.

[@lordwellingtonthethird8486]

This is great for tennis

[@Stampingerms]

He did not go through fire! 1st set was the same score as 3rd set ? Toilet break gave the goat the 4th set?? But the 5the set was fabulous!!

[@Jacob_Outzen]

Carlos is special, but let dont count rune out to soon. i still firmly believe that the next 15 years is gonna be a alcaraz-rune era, with both off them getting double digits GS.

[@luigimanzelli3786]

if he's blessed with a healthy body, unlike Nadal, i think many records will be crushed. Especially cause the Big3 were... as the word says 3, for now Alcaraz is the Big 1, with no talent of his level on the horizon he might destroy every record there is, but i guess we'll get back on the topic in a decade or so.

[@John14710]

Good on him, although he couldn’t beat prime federer, although it was bloody unthinkable to beat Djokovic even if he was injured or something, it was an insane game

[@fedeLibre]

Carlitos es un fenómeno del tenis como nunca antes se vio, pero ese fenómeno de fuerza, energía y combatividad tiene un enorme desgaste que lo hará con gran probabilidad más FUGAZ que duradero.

[@GinaMidheaven]

He stil has his phone and manners.

[@MobbieKeys]

He only won because Nole made lot of unforced errors and would've lost in straight sets. If he wants to dethrone the GOAT, he has to defeat him in USO, AO and RG where he'll be waiting for his revenge....and Nole in revenge mode is the scariest. On top of that its just 1 GS this year and Nole already has 2 in his pocket, that's not even "changing of the guard" xd

Yes it's a defeat for Djokovic, all right, but not 'devastating' as some would like to make it out to be. Now the pressure is on Alcaraz when he meets Djokovic at the U.S.Open.

[@jimcheatham112]

Why do you call him Alcarath instead of Alcaraz

[@nomeimporta1327]

It's the Spanish pronunciation

[@robert111k]

It's the proper pronounciation since it's a matter of identity and he calls himself "Alcarath". It's the same as if they pronounced "Djokovik" instead of "Djokovich".

[@Thepc425]

⁠​⁠Djokovic was employing a well known psychological tactic known to sports psychologists. If you noticed the first two sets, whenever novak is a point up he would serve immediately, whenever the opponent is a point up he would bounce the ball take his own sweet time go past 30 seconds. This is to break the momentum of the opponent. He did this for two sets, I cannot believe Carlos didn’t care, the umpire should have given him a time violation the very first game of the first set. He got caught finally and was given a time violation only in the third set. This is not just coincidence this is a well tested and proven to work tactic. This gives novak an unfair advantage. Disgusting cheating Behaviour. Now I see why people hate him.

[@arunsekhar9288]

Nadal also does the same thing wasting time,so that's fine for u .

[@Thepc425]

@@arunsekhar9288 it’s about fairness doesn’t matter who does it, we should all root for fairness and equality in sports, it’s the reason time violation exist, umpires need to enforce it every point irrespective of whether it’s a rookie or a 20 time gs champion, every point is pivotal.
