It was going to be one of the games of the year, and then everything was ruined. In the Roland-Garros semi-final a few weeks ago, Carlos Alcaraz suffered from stress cramps at the start of the third set of his clash against Novak Djokovic, leaving the Serb the way to his 23rd Grand Slam victory.
The young Spaniard will have the opportunity to take his revenge on Sunday, in the Wimbledon final. Easy winner of Medvedev in half (6-3, 6-3, 6-3), he made an appointment with Djoko – solid against Sinner a little earlier in the afternoon – for Sunday afternoon. Admittedly, Alcaraz is not yet as comfortable on grass as he is on clay, but his performances throughout the English fortnight give rise to the hope of seeing a hell of a fight.
Djokovic, from the top of his 9 finals (for 7 titles at present) on the lawn of south London, will obviously be the big favorite. He is aiming for his 24th Grand Slam. Alcaraz is looking to win his second major tournament after the 2022 US Open.
