Great words about Alcaraz
“He is the best tennis player in the world, number one. People say he has the best of three worlds – Roger, Rafa and me. I agree with that. I have never played with such a tennis player,” he said about his rival.

What broke it?
“During the tie-break in the second set, my backhand betrayed me. He did play deep, but I couldn’t miss that shot. When the next point came, I missed from the middle of the court. After that I wasn’t all myself for a while and then came that break point… The regret remains, I had my chances, but I have to congratulate him on his great defense and passing shots. I hope we play at the US Open, that would be great for tennis,” Djokovic added.
