Ahead of the Western and Southern Open, the 23-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic said he let go of the disappointment he felt after losing the Wimbledon final to Carlos Alcaraz long ago.

Despite demolishing Alcaraz in the first set, Djokovic was unable to clinch his eighth Wimbledon victory and equal Roger Federer's record, as he was defeated by the Spaniard on Centre Court in July.

Djokovic spoke with ATP ahead of the Western and Southern Open on his performance in the final. "It's not the first [nor] the last match that I lost, so I was over it in a day.

Obviously, I needed some really good rest after that, and some time with my family, and that's what I did. So, of course, I was regretting not using the chances during that final," ATP quoted Djokovic as saying ahead of the Western and Southern Open.
