Novak Djokovic was impressed by Carlos Alcaraz's performance against him in the Wimbledon final on Sunday. The Serb felt he had no solution on court against the Spaniard, who did everything a little better than he did. This is what he explained in the post-match press conference.
Novak Djokovic: "Honestly, I don't think I could have made a tactical choice that would have changed the outcome of the match. You can always analyze the match, of course, afterwards and say, I could have done this or that. But overall, what I felt on the court today against him was that I was inferior.
That's all I felt. He was a better player. He played every shot better than I did. So I don't think I could have done anything more, you know, try to motivate myself maybe. Get the audience involved. I mean, it was what happened in the third set that spurred me on a bit.
But he wasn't allowing me to get free points on my serve either. He read my serves. He played with a lot of variety.
I'd never seen him serve like that, to be honest. I mean, 136 mph (219 km/h). Maybe I missed something in this tournament, but I've never seen him serve that fast. He must have had a very good service practice day yesterday. But overall, he really outplayed me."
