Alcaraz: "I still think Novak is Superman".

By Guillaume Nonque

le 15/07/2024 à 00h27

Even though he beat Novak Djokovic to win Wimbledon on Sunday, Carlos Alcaraz continues to be greatly impressed by the world No.2. The Spaniard can't believe the Serb managed to reach the final of the tournament despite undergoing knee surgery on June 05. He explained in a press conference.

Carlos Alcaraz: "I still think Novak is Superman because what he has done in this tournament, with surgery just a few weeks before the start of the tournament, is incredible. It's unbelievable.

Honestly, as I said on the court, I was talking to my team about the incredible work Novak has done to give himself the chance to play in the tournament and reach the final. It's an extraordinary thing for me. I beat him today, but for me, Novak is still like Superman."

Alcaraz C • 3

Djokovic N • 2

1e, 12050 points

4e, 4830 points

He already surpassed Murray and Stan who have three GS each.

In time, I believe that we'll be calling him the 👑 like his fellow countryman Rafa Nadal & who knows, maybe, providing he stays fit & healthy he might even surpass Rafa's achievements.

Yes, king of clay.
You should state that, because there is only one Real King........all tennis fans know that.
Actually facts and results speak for themselves.

@StAdam … all tennis fans also know that Rafa is called the King Of Clay (rightfully so) so I’m not sure why you asked what he was king of. Facts and results DO speak for themselves, Nadal is the only man to have 10+ French Open titles with 14, the next closest player during the Open Era is Bjorn Borg with 6. Nadal also has 63 clay court titles, and an Open Era record of 81 straight wins on Clay

I asked because he was mentioned as The King, not as a King of clay.......Big difference!
Did you miss the previous posts?

@StAdam no I was able to read everything on here. I’m simply saying why people would refer to him as a King, especially on clay, because of the stats I listed. I’m also not sure why there is animosity being thrown my way as I’ve done nothing wrong, nor talked badly about Djokovic in any way, shape, or form. I don’t get why people need to get SO angry over amazing tennis

At 21 he has surpassed so many stars. 4 GS already. Equalled with Murray and Stan.

Alcaraz is just another Superman

Who's calling Rafa the king?!
King of what.....lol?

@ StAdam.......All real tennis fans acknowledge that Rafa is called the "King of Clay" for his fourteen (that's 14) Grand Slam titles at the French Open.

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
