Novak Djokovic suffered one of the most painful defeats of his successful professional career this Sunday by losing the 2023 Wimbledon Final to the young Spanish Carlos Alcaraz, a player who is not a member of the famous ‘Big Three’ like Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.

The Serbian tennis player came to this match with seven British Grand Slam titles to his credit, including an incredible run of winning the last four editions of it.

Faced with such a number of successes, Nole arrived with the aspiration of lifting the coveted trophy for the eighth time in his career, an achievement that would leave him tied with another legend as the top winner of all time at the All England Club.

The character in question is the Swiss Roger Federer, winner of 20 Grand Slams, including eight at Wimbledon, a tournament on a grass surface that was one of his favorites and where the fans took the most affection for him.

It is important to mention that Federer could have won on London soil on many more occasions, but Djokovic was precisely in charge of avoiding it in the Finals of the 2014, 2015 and 2019 edition, the latter in an epic duel that required five sets to decide. .

Djokovic will try again

Prior to holding this tournament, Djokovic, 36, made it clear that he does not see retirement close and that he plans to continue playing at the highest level of world tennis for a longer time, so it is very likely that the The Balkan player will soon be present at the Cathedral to emulate Federer’s record.

Now the main obstacle for Nole will be to be able to defeat Alcaraz, who has positioned himself as number 1 in the ATP and the main tennis player to beat on the circuit.
