AO 2024 QF - (2.) Carlos Alcaraz vs. (6.) Alexander Zverev

[Djokovic2011]

How hard do you have to work just to win one point??!

 

[fmadej]

What a point!!

 

[EdMcMush]

One of them is named after Alexander the Great, right?

Alexanders greatest weakness and obstacle was arguably his pride, ambition, and raging temper. He was despised by many fellow Greeks because of this. Overall, his conquest was simply because of his pride- conquest for the sake of conquest. straight from google

 

[Sentinel]

Great from Alex!

 

[mehdimike]

What a rally!

 

[Krish872007]

Phenomenal from Zed! It had to be that good

 

[NYTennisfan]

That was amazing defense by Zed, out of nowhere.

 

[FeroBango]

You know that sad meme cat? Alcaraz reminds me of it when he grunts.

 

[Terenigma]

Oh yes! What a great point and hold from Zverev!

 

[MichaelNadal]

Epic AF

 

[Smecz]

It is very strange that Zverev being 5:2, didn't become ultra ahressive, he behave like an amateur heh

 

[Djokovic2011]

 

[Arak]

Alcaraz has gotten lucky so many times, I think the gods themselves have decided he must win this match.

 

[aldeayeah]

That was one great game (4-3 fourth set)

 

[fmadej]

Zverev complaining about something

 

[Kralingen]

This has turned into quite the contest really. Could genuinely go either way 50-50.

 

[Terenigma]

What was Zverev complaining about there? I didn't hear

 

[JaxTeller]

This is a quality match..

 

[mahatma]

This match is off the charts in quality now. First 2 sets were meh

 

[aldeayeah]

Zverev complaining about something

Big screen showing moving images during serve.

 

[RS]

Alcaraz took a long time to settle...

I think too long.

 

[Krish872007]

Zed's forehand has worked well today

And he has 2 more BPs...

 

[Nadal15thslam]

Noo, bps for Zverev

 

[Kralingen]

This really is a carbon copy of their RG 22 match.

That 4th set was pretty legendary, and this one is getting there. Hoping for a different result…

 

[NYTennisfan]

Uh oh Carlos, starting to spray errors

 

[Sentinel]

Virtual MPs.

 

[ibbi]

Damn, that last Zverev service game was a massive momentum shifter.

 

[FeroBango]

It's over

 

[fmadej]

Omg, another chance for Z to seal the deal

 

[Tshooter]

 

[Sentinel]

Tiny Done and dusted.

 

[RS]

Great game to break

 

[Krish872007]

Another chance to serve out the match

 

[GodlessEndeavor]

Will he be able to serve it out this time?

 

[ibbi]

Bro, Medvedev is in the final again.

 

[Terenigma]

Zverev breaks with a wonderful BH and Alcaraz nets! Let's go!! Serve it out... again!

 

[iopzzza]

Will he choke again?

 

[Subway Tennis]

Incredible heroics from Zverev.

The bottom of his foot has completely torn away in one giant blister, and yet here he is serving for the match.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Mince.

 

[Baseline_Bungle]

Lolol

Here we go again

 

[Kralingen]

Total choke job from Carlos. Finds his mettle for an hour and then goes back to amateur level play.

So disappointing

 

[NYTennisfan]

That should be a wrap. The mountain was just too steep to overcome unfortunately, can't see Zverev choking another service game away (come on reverse psychology)

 

[ark_28]

Let’s gooooooooooooo

 

[JaxTeller]

Best BH of all time

 

[RS]

This really is a carbon copy of their RG 22 match.

That 4th set was pretty legendary, and this one is getting there. Hoping for a different result…

RG 2022 was a excellent tournament

 

[mehdimike]

Damn, that last Zverev service game was a massive momentum shifter.

That dumb Drop Shot when Carlos had him out of position and also had all the court to go for.

 

[neytron]

Wow, that was unexpected. Will he be able to choke again? I believe in Chokerev.

 

[Bubcay]

If Zverev chokes this away, he should stop playing tennis.

 

[Djokovic2011]

Fantastic from Zverev but let's be honest, nobody's gonna bet their house on him serving this one out.

 

[Standaa]

Zverev is at his passive peak.

is he back at his active peak?
