Excellent match that. First time Djokovic has lost on Centre Court since Murray beat him in the final 10 years ago! If Alcaraz can time his performances to peak at the Grand Slams, he has the ability to dominate the sport. He seems to be mentally stronger at 19-20 than both Federer and Djokovic were. Nadal took a little while at the other slams bar the French Open, but this guy looks like he can translate his game to all surfaces. He's won on hard courts and now grass, and he grew up on clay surfaces so it's possible he could go on to boss the French Open the way his compatriot has.

That Kate Middleton's fucking thin. Thin and dim. Doesn't she eat? She's got access to the best food, prepared and cooked by the best chefs and all made from the best produce yet she obviously doesn’t let a crumb touch her lips. She's got the flavours of the world at the click of her fingers. I'd be like Henry the 8th.

 

 

And that boy gives off very strange vibes.. he could become the first artificially intelligence made king. He's definitely not human. 

 

 

Excellent tennis match that. The young Spanish star puts a wicked amount of pace on his passing shots. Like they've been fired from a gun.

That last game was a marker. Nerves? No every point first serve. Big balls on that kid. 

 

To be fair he's won the US Open which is as big as it gets so he's not green, but did demonstrate his mettle throughout.

Beating Djokovic in the final. On a court he hasn’t lost on in 10 years. Losing the first set 6-1. Balls the size of space hoppers this kid. 

Barely ever played on grass before as well.

He needs Novak to stay competitive for a couple more years, at least. Hopefully a couple more come through that can push him over the next decade as well. 


No doubt that Federer, Nadal, Murray, and Novak benefited from having each other around (although they probably cost each other a good few Grand Slams).

 

If he just dominates on all surfaces, it won’t be good for tennis, and he won’t reach the levels I think he can.
