Alcaraz is a freak
"Carlos Alcaraz is a freak": Kyrgios left in awe at Alcaraz' display against Djokovic in Wimbledon final
ATPTuesday, 18 July 2023 at 02:00
Nick
Kyrgios was amazed by Carlos Alcaraz's incredible victory over Novak Djokovic
in the Wimbledon final.
The highly
anticipated final between the Spanish and Serbian players promised to be a
historic match, as Djokovic was the overwhelming favorite as a 7-time Wimbledon
champion, winning the last four consecutive editions and not losing on the
Centre Court since the 2013 final against Andy Murray.
Alcaraz
arrived at SW19 with limited experience on grass, but as the championship
progressed, he showcased his best repertoire, and in the final, he displayed
his top-level tennis to end Djokovic's dominance on the London grass.
Despite a
challenging first set in which Djokovic took the lead, and the difference in
level between the two players seemed evident, Alcaraz took control of the
match. Nick Kyrgios, who was closely watching the game, tweeted,
"Carlos Alcaraz is a freak."
"If somehow… Like somehow if Novak can turn this around, I'm convinced he is not human," he further added.
If some how…. Like some how if Novak can turn this around, I’m convinced he is not human.
Kyrgios
acknowledged that he hadn't watched a complete tennis match in a long time and
thanked Djokovic and Alcaraz for the incredible performance they put on at the
All England Club.
"Haven't watched a whole tennis match in a long time haha THANKYOU Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz for putting on that incredible performance. Congratulations to you both."
Haven’t watched a whole tennis match in a long time haha THANKYOU @DjokerNole & @carlosalcaraz for putting on that incredible performance. Congratulations to you both 👑🙏🏽
The
Australian player is familiar with playing at Wimbledon, one of his favorite
tournaments, where he reached the final last year, but fell to none other than
Novak Djokovic.
In 2022,
Kyrgios had an impressive run at Wimbledon, defeating local player Paul Jubb,
Filip Krajinovic, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Brandon Nakashima, and Christian Garin on
his way to the semifinals. There, he was set to face Rafael Nadal, who had an
outstanding record of 19-0 in Grand Slam matches that year.
However,
Nadal was forced to withdraw due to an injury, granting Kyrgios a spot in the
final. In the 2022 final, Kyrgios had a strong start, winning the first set,
but Djokovic mounted a comeback and ultimately defeated Kyrgios 4-6, 6-4, 6-4,
7-6.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
