Djokovic faces a new history at Wimbledon: The coronation will mean a lot
All eyes are on the “Wimbledon” tournament, on the grass courts in the British capital, London, when the men’s final will be held between the veteran Serbian star Novak Djokovic and the young Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, on Sunday afternoon.
Last Friday, Serbian Djokovic entered history from the widest doors in the world of tennis, after he qualified for the 35th Grand Slam final in his career (Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, US Open), and Djokovic reached the final of the Wimbledon Championship, after defeating his Italian counterpart Yannick Sinner, in three free sets, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (7-4).
Djokovic was able to outperform the world number two Sinner, and he did not face difficulty in the last group, which witnessed a tie-break, during which the Italian committed many mistakes.
Djokovic shared the record for the number of Grand Slam finals with American Chris Evert, to surpass it today by reaching the Wimbledon final for the fifth time in a row.
Djokovic has a number of other goals after he exceeded this number. First, he has 7 titles at Wimbledon, and if he wins there, he will reach the eighth star, equaling the Swiss legend Roger Federer, who retired last year.
Despite his thirty-sixth birthday, Djokovic recently shows a combative and high style of play and exceptional mental resilience, to confirm that he is a legend in this sport, and he is the one who tweets at the forefront of the most male players achieving “Grand Slam” titles by 23, surpassing Nadal II (22), but now he is ahead of him. A new opportunity to write his name among the greats and then move forward in the coming period towards a new, long-awaited glory, in which Serena Williams, the American star, failed.
If Djokovic wins Sunday, he will reach the title No. 24 in the “Grand Slam”, and thus he will share the record for the most crowned in major tournaments with Australian Margaret Court (24 titles), and after that, he can break it as long as he possesses these abilities, the spirit of youth and determination, in addition to the passion Which he shows in all meetings despite these achievements he has achieved.
Novak also wants to continue his series of successes at Wimbledon, as he has not lost in the last 4 editions held there specifically since 2018, knowing that he will reach the third major championship this season if he is crowned in Britain, after winning the Australian Open title at the beginning of the season, and from Then he kidnapped Roland Garros on the dirt, and then he will have the American Open that New York hosts in August, and thus he will achieve a unique achievement if he lifts the titles of the four major tournaments in one year.
The Serbian, ranked second in the world, said after the end of the match in front of Sinner from the stadium: “I feel that the 36 is like the 26 again. I feel very good, and I have a great motivation,” and this shows the passionate side of the Serbian player.
And Novak must pay attention to an important point in front of Alcaraz, despite previously talking about his mental strength, but he gets out of his natural state and loses his temper at times. During the confrontation with the Italian player, he was deducted a point from him, because of his screaming in the middle of the game, and he commented Friday on this. The matter from the field: “This opponent could have changed the course of the match. I was nervous after this decision, but I managed to overcome it. This is probably the first time that I have experienced this in my entire career.” And here the Serb must remain calm, because this time the opponent He will try to take advantage of every little thing.
