Djokovic & Alcaraz bromance?

[vokazu]

What a wonderful camaraderie and rivalry between these two legendary players! The way they acknowledge and respect and compliment each other during the trophy ceremony at Cincinnati showed how they really enjoy their rivalry and their battles. I think they will play against each other many more times!!!!

It's really nice they warm up to each other like that like true rivals, like friends.

That Final match was so breathtaking, exciting and mind blowing!!!! The way they broke each other in big moments, saving match points, it's like they were fighting for their life out there!!!! It was a blood bath in a gladiators arena!!! They took tennis to the next level!!!!!!!

Thank you to these two legendary players! Tennis is alive again!!!!

I forgot to add that they also created history by playing the longest ATP Cincinnati match in history!

We want more matches like this!

Beyond the salty mines of TTW and Twitter, these champions actually know one when they see one.

When most of their Finals these days consist of guys like Tsitsipas, Ruud, and Medvedev, getting the pleasure to face a competitor like one of these two must feel like finding an oasis in the desert.

Yeah, when you are actually out there doing the battles you know exactly what sacrifices each player has to make to get to the Finals... They respect each other's mighty effort therefore they value each other and they make each other better and better as players and rivals, and that also make them to be better human beings by respecting each other.

Age difference definitely helps in how they view and talk about each other.

I laughed when Djokovic said "Man, you never give up,,, Geez,..." Then I laughed when Carlos said : "Spanish never die...." Lolll

Then Djokovic said "would be nice to play against you in New York, nice for the spectators, not for me" lollll

Why did Carlos get so emotional about his brother ?
He was crying a good bit - seems a bit much for a small tournament - after winning Wimbledon and all ...

I think the final made the tournament made it feel like a much bigger deal than it actually was. They were fighting like crazy.

Maybe because his brother was out there watching live, and his brother has been supporting him so much since the start of his career.

Carlos Alcaraz rompe a llorar al recordar a su hermano tras perder ante Djokovic: "Es genial..."

El tenista murciano se ha mostrado muy emocionado tras una noche dura en la que, tras caer ante Djokovic, no ha dudado en asegurar que "es genial" tener aquí a su hermano apoyándole cada día.

This is becoming so common in sports over the last 20 years and it’s disgusting.

Go watch WTA then. Tennis is gentlemen's sports.

Djokovic v Alcaraz is such a special rivalry, they both appreciate it you can tell and the respect is crazy high for each other.

When these two take to the court, it is fireworks every single time.

What a way to hand the torch from the greatest of his era, to the greatest of the future era.

Djokovic getting the perfect ending to his career with this rivalry and Alcaraz getting the perfect start to his career with this rivalry.

there is no bromance, make no mistake about it, alcaraz is way too professional to entertain any friendship with a rival......he is after glory and that is what matters to him......

These two meeting in the final would make 500 a big occasion.

Masters Titles are considered BIG Tournaments, offering lots of money and ranking points, which makes them far more important than the Olympics.

No Bromance. But the influence Djokovic has had on Carlos game was evident last night.

There is little doubt in my mind that Carlos has worked on his sliding backhand, and his flexibility, virtually doing the splits on a number of occasions.

Yes it really affected them both in this match. I mean neither of them really cared during the match did they ? Somehow it went to almost 4 hours ….

Never said they have a friendship. But if they develop one like Roger/Rafa it’ll be gross.

Federer and Nadal are close but not that close. Neither of them went to the other's wedding
