What a match!! Comms said Novak has played 35 GS finals. That’s like 9 consecutive years of playing every slam final or 3 per year for 12yrs. Insanity. ?

Best comeback ever from Novak . Didn’t see him turn this around after a set and a break down in 2nd set ,suffering from heat stroke. What a champion, what a performance. How did he turn it around?

What another great match between the Big Two… Djokovic & Alcaraz…from clay to grass to hardcourt, from altitude in Madrid to the coolness of Wimbledon to the searing heat of Cincinnati… bring on the US Open, bring on Australia, and enjoy this while it lasts
