Not many people probably thought Djokovic could win this game before the game. It was only in the fourth set that Djokovic's support surpassed Alcaraz's.
After the game, Djokovic was enjoying the win, and the fans were enjoying the wonderful game.
Master duel can collide with more colorful sparks.
Here's what Djokovic said after the game.
1. This victory is thanks to my two arms and two legs, or rather, one and a half legs.
2. Praise and praise Alcaraz:
[Send yourself a flower] expresses the highest respect and admiration for Alcaraz for what he has achieved so far in his career so young. I lament that he is a great man and an extremely good opponent. Djokovic described Alcaraz as "charismatic".
Alcaraz is the youngest world number one in the history of our sport, and for sure we'll see him more often in the future, and he'll certainly be in the ring longer than I am.
3. Rate this match: This is one of the best matches I've ever played on this field, or any field. So thank you to everyone who watched us play at 1 a.m. and supported us.
4. Thinking of the opponent Zverev in the next match: I don't know if Sasha is still awake and watching at one o'clock, I'm sure his team is still watching. [Laughs] [covers face]
5. About the injury: Because I'm still in the game, I can't tell you!
The drugs started to work, and they did help, there's no doubt about it. I had to eat it again. I had to do it. After winning the second set, until the end of the match, I didn't suffer from injuries anymore, I didn't cause any obstacles, but it was more difficult in the second set.
6. About playing more aggressively after an injury.
At the 2023 Australian Open, I suffered a similar injury at the time, and basically carried the injury from the beginning of the tournament, so I had to hit the ball more decisively.
To be honest, sometimes it helps. In the second and third sets, it definitely worked. From the point of view of your questioning, I feel like that experience did help psychologically compared to what I did in 2023 because all of a sudden you start playing a little bit more aggressively. Tonight's game, it's a bonus.
7. The key now is to recover (physically), there is an extra day without a game, and the timing is just right. Hopefully I'll be in the best form when I play on Friday.
8. Sasha is playing the best tennis of his career. But we have a pact that as long as I'm still playing, he'll let me win in a Grand Slam. (Because Djokovic has never lost to Sasha in a Grand Slam, 3:0.) [Laughs] [Laughs])
In a live interview after the charity show before the Australian Open, when asked why Zverev didn't win a Grand Slam, Zverev joked: "It's because you [Deyo] didn't let me win." ”
After watching tonight's game, I think it's worth it! As Djokovic said, everyone was looking forward to this game as soon as the draw came out, and Djokovic lived up to expectations and completed a very exciting game! Even the fall is a gorgeous "Deyo fall". In contrast, Alcaraz's fall may have been more painful.
There are too many wonderful balls. The round before the net is dazzling, and the round of twenty or thirty beats takes people's breath away.
I can't help but sigh, is Djokovic's tennis not on the line?!
Djokovic's multi-shot round with Alcaraz was not just the kind of bottom-line holding, but a fierce confrontation, and Alcaraz continued to increase and speed up. Truth be told, overall Djokovic didn't take advantage of this kind of round and affected the next service game.
The last thing I want to say is that Djokovic's sons and daughters are very self-disciplined and persist until so late. Deyo was very concerned, "But it's one o'clock in the morning, when are you going to sleep tonight?" "Haha......
