Wimbledon 2023 Final: Djokovic vs Alcaraz, A Battle of Different Generations

– The 2023 Wimbledon men’s singles final will bring together two tennis players from different generations, namely Novak Djokovic vs Carlos Alcaraz. This top match will be played on Sunday (16/7/2023) night.

The winner of this final would not only leave London with the Wimbledon crown but also world number one status.

Djokovic even admitted that he was happy to be able to face Alcaraz in the final.

“I think, judging by the performances we’ve seen from all the players, I think this is probably the best final we could have had,” he told reporters.

“We’re both in good form. We’re both playing well. Obviously, I want to win this title without a doubt. I’m really looking forward to it. It’s going to be a great challenge, the biggest challenge I can face at the moment from any angle be it physical, mental, emotional,” Djokovic added

Although Djokovic believes that Alcaraz is hungry for success, he feels the same way.

Meanwhile, Alcaraz has ambitions to avenge his defeat to Djokovic in the semifinals of the 2023 French Open. At that time, Alcaraz, who had experienced cramps in his legs, failed to put up a fierce resistance so he lost 3-6, 7-5, 1-6, 1-6.

This time, the 20-year-old tennis player wants to avoid the same thing from happening again. Moreover, playing at Wimbledon is of course a different matter because it will appear on a grass field.

To face the final, Alcaraz asked for the help of a psychologist to give him moral encouragement to face a tense match.

“I will talk to him about how to prepare for that match, an important moment for me, which will not be easy. I (will) try to go on court not as nervous as I might have been in the semifinals of the French Open,” he said.

Alcaraz ensured he would look different compared to meeting Djokovic at the French Open.
