A fourth Grand Slam is in the hands of an extraordinary Carlos Alcaraz has thumped a completely lost Novak Djokovic in a Wimbledon final that had no resolve. A single game lost with his serve, he becomes a back-to-back Wimbledon champion destroying the best player in history (6-2/6-2/7-6).
FIRST SET
Alcaraz entered the match very plugged in, without any fear against a Djokovic who already knew what it was like to beat him in a final of this caliber. As a result, the first game of the match was very long. Almost 20 minutes with the Serbian on serve in which the Murcian had up to five chances to win it. At the break, Carlitos managed to break the first game of the final, and then confirm it to take the lead by 2-0.

Djokovic cut to 2-1 looking to try to turn this bad start, but Alcaraz was very involved in the match, and got a game in white to put the 3-1. Then came the second blow of Carlitos to Nole, with a second break that this time materialized in his first opportunity with 30-40. Although he would have to defend a break ball from Djokovic with 4-1 in his favor, the Spaniard did not hesitate with his serve, and going up to the net dissipated that opportunity of his rival. 5-1.
The next game would be taken by Novak Djokovic, with Carlos Alcaraz lowering the pace to close the first set of the final with his serve. With 5-2, Carlitos was 40-15 with two set balls. The first one was not to be, but the second one he closed the set 6-2 to start the final.

Arise King Alcaraz! He wins Wimbledon again.
SECOND SET
The dynamic did not change at the start of the second set. Djokovic still lacked power in his forehand and Charlie continued to press with the rest and broke the Serbian's serve at the start of the second set;
In the next game Nole managed to squeeze a little to the Murcian and reached the equal, but at the moment of truth the world number 3 did not fail and put the 2-0. A volley that Djokovic applauded and a backhand volley in the purest style of ham cut of El Pozo made Alcaraz put the 3-1 on the scoreboard. The key until that moment of the match: how good Carlitos was with his first serve, much better than during the whole Wimbledon.
Fantastic Djokovic's reaction in a very complicated moment winning the next game in white improving with the right and at the net. Although the Serb seemed to have raised the level with his serve, Alcaraz also demanded more in the rest and broke again. He was one game away from winning the second set.
With a supernatural serve, simply perfect, he also closed the second set 6-2 and was just one set away from winning his second consecutive Wimbledon.
Third set
Djokovic increased the level at the rest at the beginning of the third set, but Carlitos continued to play very seriously every time he had any moment of difficulty and both players started the third set winning their respective serves.
In the next game Novak Djokovic pulled out his guts, saved several break balls and the GOAT of world tennis screamed for the first time in the match to take a 2-1 lead in the third set. Alcaraz lowered the percentage of first Carlos and squeezed more services to the rest a Djokovic who was giving everything in the third set aware that if he did not tighten there was nothing to do;
Alcaraz saved his second break point of the match with a great serve. He wanted to rush attacking and going up to the net until he calmed down and ended up saving his serve. 3-3 in a third set more evenly matched. The level of the final had risen by the rise of Nole and reached 4-4 in a very open set. At that moment Carlitos raised the intensity again to put the 5-4 in his favor with a break in white. He had the serve in his favor to win the match.
Then came the doubts. With three match points in his favor with his serve he got nervous, missed and Novak Djokovic broke his serve for the first time in the match. Then the Serbian forced the tie break. Carlitos did not fail and the third set would be decided in sudden death; Alcaraz was imperial, did not fail and closed his second consecutive Wimbledon.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.
mandoist05-11-2026 - Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.
mandoist05-11-2026 - Vacherot is Mongasque, rather than Swiss. The tournament was Swiss :DTrwd7702-11-2026
- After a couple decades traveling to IIHF tourneys overseas... our family is done with it... and I will not be the only one!! Bad enough the NHL allows Ovachenko (a Putin Supporter and Campaigner) to live and play in the USA. Let's not forget the STATE SPONSORED RUSSIAN DOPING PROGRAMS still in effect today.
mandoist31-10-2026 - Osaka's mental state apparently does not allow her to reach any more Quarter Finals? I mean, she doesn't really have the time for tennis with all the pre-planning that must go into her 12 year-old "fashion" goals.
