Carlos Alcaraz’s instant-classic win over Novak Djokovic in Wimbledon's men’s final on Sunday felt seismic. For individual sports such as tennis to thrive, they need rivalries and jeopardy. Now, Novak Djokovic has a challenger. ✍️ CDEccleshare
Like those pivotal Wimbledon matches, Carlos Alcaraz’s instant-classic win over Novak Djokovic in the men’s final on Sunday felt seismic.
Like those three, the 20-year-old possesses never-before-seen gifts and a charisma to elevate tennis and give it the sort of crossover appeal that allows it to transcend the sport’s normal boundaries — I’ve rarely received so many messages about a player from non-tennis fans as I have done over the last day or so about the young Spaniard.Because tennis, at the very top end, had become too predictable.
A change in American policy on this means Djokovic will be able to play in the New York event, which begins on August 28 — and that storyline of the bruised champion out to get his top-dog status back is such a captivating one, such an easy one for even casual fans to relate to. This is such an exciting prospect: the almost impossible-to-imagine idea of Djokovic having to get even better. Because Djokovic is never more compelling than when pushed to his limits.
