Djokovic, who was facing Italian Jannik Sinner in the final, overcame a difficult start and won five sets, moving him one step closer to his first Grand Slam.
Sinner was a major champion four times over. He dominated the opening set, winning 15 points and dropping very few on his serve. Djokovic, a four-time major winner, fought back and broke Sinner’s service in the second game to level the match.
Djokovic described the experience as “surreal” after the game, which was over four hours long and finished at nearly 2 am. I’m thinking about the final of 2012 against Rafa.
Alcaraz Stages Heroic Comeback Against Zverev
Charly vamos, little by little, he told himself. He slowly regained his control.
Alcaraz’s aggressive and high-risk shot selection was the key to his success. He hit 78 winners, compared with Zverev’s 56.
Alcaraz: “I’ve always said you have to believe in yourself.” I couldn’t do it without the audience. “Their energy kept me in the game at every point.”
The players displayed resilience, tactful brilliance and the ability thrive under pressure. As they compete for the most sought-after tennis title, fans can expect an exciting match.
