Djokovic was ’embarrassed’ in Wimbledon closing as Alcaraz backed to dominate

Meanwhile, Alcaraz stated the match modified his mentality when it got here to defeating Djokovic on the most important stage. Speaking straight after he was topped the Wimbledon champion, the world No 1 stated: “I mean, before this match, I thought I can’t beat Novak. That’s obviously.

“But after this epic match, let’s say, yeah, I think different about Novak in the way that probably in other tournaments, in other Grand Slams, I will remember this moment. I will think that, well, I’m ready to play five sets against him, good rallies, good sets, really long, long match, and stay there physically, mentally, in tennis, in general. Probably it change my mind a little bit after this match.”
