Carlos Alcaraz played an insane point to close out the match against Daniil Medvedev His ability to defend this well on grass is unbelievable This was a guy who looked lost on this surface not too long ago. Not lost anymore. He looks right at home.
"I'll try to get into court with not as much nerves": Alcaraz aims to banish poor French Open showing against Djokovic ahead of Wimbledon final

Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest Wimbledon finalist since Rafael Nadal when he saw off Daniil Medvedev and set up a clash with Novak Djokovic.
A clash that Djokovic described as a 'feast' in which both players are 'hungry' well for Alcaraz, he will be hungry to banish the bad memories from the French Open.
The Spaniard was seen as potentially the champion elect but pulled up halfway through the game with cramp and Djokovic took full advantage.
An aspect of the match that Alcaraz will be trying to avoid next time at SW19.
"I try to get into the court with not as much nerves as I probably had in French Open, in the semifinal. I try to pull out all nerves, try to enjoy that moment 'cause probably in the semifinal at the French Open, I didn't enjoy at all in the first set probably," Carlos Alcaraz said.
"I'll do something different from the match. I prepare the match a little bit different from French Open. It's going to be different for me. I hope not to get cramp during the final. I think I'll be better on Sunday," he added.
