Alcaraz’s Victory at Wimbledon: A New Era in World Tennis

Carlos Alcaraz’s victory at Wimbledon against Novak Djokovic continues to make people talk. The Spaniard, who retained the number one in the world, conquered his second Grand Slam and ended the hegemony of ‘Nole’ at the All England Club, entered a new dimension with his victory on the grass of the Center Court and was confirmed as referent of a new era in world tennis.

Ending Djokovic’s unbeaten run on center court after ten years, Alcaraz’s achievement has not gone unnoticed by anyone, not even by Jimmy Arias, former world number five, who in a talk on the Tennis Channel’s ‘Inside-In’ podcast has raised the Spanish to the highest.

“Before the Wimbledon final, a couple of people asked me and I said, and this may sound crazy, but Alcaraz at his best is better than anyone. He is better than Djokovic, Djokovic cannot reach the level that Alcaraz reaches”, said the American.

This is the best level I’ve ever seen, him in his prime. He didn’t know if he was going to be able to do it in a Wimbledon final against Djokovic, but he also knew that he would be more relaxed than at Roland Garros,” he added.

Wilander’s phrase that defines Alcaraz: “He may be one of the most important we have…”

In this way, Arias hallucinated with Alcaraz’s final game against Novak at Wimbledon, where the number one tempered his nerves and signed a perfect game to leave behind the pressure and be crowned.

He has the offensive weapons of Federer, he has the heart of Nadal from what we have seen. I mean, how do you pull off the final game at Wimbledon, playing against Djokovic? He made all the first serves and Djokovic only missed one return and it still didn’t faze him in any way,” he noted.

Finally, the one who was a US Open semifinalist in his day, wanted to join the Hellenic of authorized voices who see in Alcaraz a perfect mix of the best qualities of Rafa Nadal, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic himself.

“It’s very strange for me to say that the greatest player of all time is not as good as this 20-year-old guy. But you look at Alcaraz and I don’t know how he’s done it so fast. Somehow he took the ‘Big Three’ and he combined all his strengths and put them into himself,” he asserted.
