WIMBLEDON, England — Carlos Alcaraz stunned Novak Djokovic 1-6, 7-6 (6), 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 to win the Wimbledon men’s singles title on Sunday.
The 20-year-old Spaniard became the third-youngest man to win the title after Boris Becker and Björn Borg, and the first man outside the “Big Four” of Djokovic, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Andy Murray to win Wimbledon since 2002.
Alcaraz started the match slowly, losing the first set 6-1. But he found his form in the second set, winning the tiebreak 7-6 (6). He then took control of the match, winning the third set 6-1 and the fourth set 3-6.
In the fifth set, Alcaraz broke Djokovic’s serve to go up 2-1. Djokovic fought back to level the set at 4-4, but Alcaraz broke him again to win the match 6-4.
Alcaraz’s win is a major breakthrough for the young Spaniard. He is now the No. 1 ranked player in the world, and he is considered to be one of the favorites to win the US Open later this year.
Djokovic was gracious in defeat, saying that Alcaraz is “the best player in the world right now.” He also said that he is “excited” to see what Alcaraz accomplishes in the future.
Alcaraz’s win is a sign of the changing of the guard in men’s tennis. The “Big Four” have dominated the sport for years, but Alcaraz is now one of the favorites to win every major tournament. He is a force to be reckoned with, and he is sure to be a major force on the tennis scene for many years to come.
