Alcaraz’s performance was dominant from the start, breaking Djokovic’s serve multiple times and showcasing his consistency and skill. His victory also places him among an elite group of players who have won both the Roland Garros and Wimbledon titles in the same year, joining legends like Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, Rafael Nadal, Federer, and Djokovic.
Djokovic, who had recently undergone knee surgery, made a commendable comeback to reach his 37th major final but struggled to find his rhythm against an inspired Alcaraz.
