Carlos Alcaraz defeated seven-time champion Novak Djokovic to claim his first Wimbledon title on Sunday, shattering the Serb's dream of a record-equalling 24th Grand Slam crown. World number one Alcaraz recovered from dropping the first set and saving a set point in the second to win 1-6, 7-6 (8/6), 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 after four hours and 42 minutes on Centre Court. It was a second major for the 20-year-old Spaniard following his US Open title last year as he became Wimbledon's third youngest men's champion.
Arguably the greatest tennis player of his generation, Novak Djokovic was involved in a thriller against World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final. Over the course of the match, Djokovic saw the support for Alcaraz rapidly increase, especially as the Serb continued to be targeted by the crowd and the referee overtime violation. Djokovic would often take 33 seconds to serve, compared to Alcaraz's 27 seconds. Djokovic was even told to 'get on with it' as he looked to buy a few seconds against a fitter and younger Alcaraz. Even the Indian cricket team's veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin took to Twitter, posting a sarcastic tweet about Djokovic.

Alcaraz came from a set down to win a five-set epic against Djokovic despite his inexperience on grass. Ad The victory is the 20-year-old Spaniard’s second Grand Slam after last year’s US Open, and while he praised his 36-year-old opponent’s longevity, there are questions over how long the Serbian can maintain his current performance levels.
New Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz admitted that before Sunday’s match, he thought “I can’t beat” Novak Djokovic. Those thoughts might have intensified early in the match-up when he went a set down, but ultimately the world No. 1 rallied and won over the course of the following four sets, in a match that took more than four hours to complete.
LONDON: The last time Carlos Alcaraz faced Novak Djokovic he was left so frightened that the Spaniard turned into a nervous wreck and ended up suffering debilitating cramps that cruelly crushed his French Open dreams in front of a global audience.
LONDON : Novak Djokovic has experienced everything possible on a tennis court during his trophy-laden 23-year career but said he has never faced a player quite like Carlos Alcaraz.
