Carlos Alcaraz ends Novak Djokovic’s reign to win maiden Wimbledon title | Tennis News – Times of India
For a decade, the 36-year-old Serbian had been virtually invincible on Wimbledon’s hallowed Centre Court. However, on this fateful day, he encountered an unstoppable force in the form of the young prodigy, Alcaraz.
In a pivotal moment during the fifth set, Alcaraz demonstrated his brilliance with a spectacular passing shot winner, breaking Djokovic’s serve and claiming a 2-1 lead. Frustrated and overwhelmed, Djokovic unleashed his anger upon his racket, smashing it against the wooden net post, rendering it a mangled mess.
This outburst resulted in a second warning for Djokovic, with his earlier caution stemming from his extended time between serves.
Nevertheless, Alcaraz remained undeterred by the commotion, displaying an inspired performance that stayed on course. His remarkable achievement saw him become the youngest man in 37 years to lift the prestigious Challenge Cup. Djokovic’s final forehand found the net, sealing Alcaraz’s triumph, and in that moment, the victorious Spaniard jubilantly collapsed onto his back, savoring the culmination of his success.
