Alcaraz on course to be the youngest winner of the channel slam and youngest to defend Wimbledon since Becker in 85-86

Please, don't make excuses. He played as well as he could aged 36.

As for the unforced errors in the TB, players make unforced errors in all matches. Novak was unlucky to make the UE during a crucial moment, but that's it.

Not saying Novak can't win though. I think a final between them could honestly go either way, both are looking strong as of now.

Not to mention the fact Alcaraz also had UEs that could have made the difference but nobody wants to talk about that lol.

I'm not really asterisking it, just think Djoko was the better player in that match and is even hungrier this year.

He's hungry, pissed and he wants to exact revenge for last year. He wants Alcaraz on Center Court in the Final and he will inflict a beating he won't soon forget

 

[TheLeadMaster]

Alcaraz has never defended a grand slam title.

 

[The Guru]

Alcaraz has never defended a grand slam title.

What a bum 21 years old and never defended a slam title. Absolutely shameful.

 

[Tano]

Alcaraz has never defended a grand slam title.

Are you serious or is this a joke?

 

[tennisjedi]

I hope this is a reality on Sunday. Vamos!

 

[FeroBango]

Let’s wait until he does it, shall we?

Until the championship point is played, I'm not proclaiming anything.

 

[duaneeo]

Alcaraz has never defended a grand slam title.

And he's never lost a slam final.

 

[RelentlessAttack]

I see your jinx thread and raise you my own prediction. Djokovic takes advantage of the extra rest he’s had this tournament and cruises to #25 in straights on Sunday

 

[TheLeadMaster]

And he's never lost a slam final.

He hasn't gotten to that many slam finals since winning the US Open in 2022.

 

[tennisjedi]

Vamos!

Alcaraz does it.

 

[KennyoFatoBoiyo]

And Alcaraz did it in style!!

 

[KingCarlitos]

He's not on course to do it while the iceberg named Djoko is in the way

What you mean to say is that Djokovic is on course to win his 25th major and take Federer's last record.

OP aged well, this aged badly, Djokovic may never get his fabled 25th if he doesn't win a slam before 2026.

I just love how this aged like a container of cottage cheese left out in the sun lol

It aged perfectly, my counterjinx reversed his original jinx
