Djokovic, OG Paris 24: most emotional Win reaction ever in individual sports?

[tommyfr]

After his win, he first fell on ground, then ran lightly to Alcaraz at net, smiled, hugged him, said some comforting words, so far pretty standard for a winner i big tournament, grandslam etc......but then a like 2 minute full body ecstatic reaction of joy, relief, happiness, pride, followed (tears mixed with body and hands trembling, shaking as effect of it all). First on his knees, head to ground, then on knees now arms and head lifted to sky, then stood stumbling up, back to chair, again more crying under his towel...and later up to his box.

I cant recall any such strong, moving winners reaction in tennis ever, or for that matter in any other individual sport.
And that from a veteran in the sport!
I am interested to know from others on this.

Federer's reaction to winning Roland Garros was so epic it was memes.

Nadal's reaction to winning Wimbledon the first time had become an historic icon of tennis itself.

No.

I can probably think of 5 very quickly.

But the first and foremost might be Jordan's first championship after his father died, which happened to be on Father's Day in the US.

Nothing will top Ivanisevic winning Wimbledon for me (for player emotion anyway).

Ivanisevic was my favorite player when I was a junior and I have very fond memories of watching that match and his reaction.

Jordan? Which Jordan are we talking about? Because OP said “individual sports”
