Djokovic reaches French Open final by defeating Carlos Alcaraz, Novak is just one step away from creating history
Serbia’s legendary tennis player Novak Djokovic has now come very close to winning the 23rd Grand Slam title. 22-time winner Novak Djokovic has entered the final after defeating Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz in the semi-finals of the French Open on June 9. He booked his place in the final by defeating world No. 1 Alcaraz in the men’s singles event.
Novak Djokovic used his experience and great fitness to beat Carlos Alcaraz 6-3, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1 in the semi-finals of the French Open on Friday to move towards a record 23rd Grand Slam title. He defeated world number one Alcaraz 6-3, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1.
He is one shot short of a record 23rd Gand Slam title. During this, Alcaraz took the second set with a brilliant shot. But fatigue caught up with him after that and the world number three Serbian, playing his 45th semi-final at a Grand Slam, did not have much trouble in registering a win. Please tell that this match between the two players lasted for 3 hours and 23 seconds.
Cramp had increased the difficulties of Alcaraz
Alcaraz took a break to combat fatigue and muscle strain, but it didn’t help. She missed the first set due to a hamstring strain but made a comeback in the next set. After this, in the third set, he again got cramps and his rhythm was broken, after which it became difficult for him to come back. Djokovic said after winning the match, “I can understand their problem. Feel bad for them. Hope he recovers from this soon.
Please tell that after defeating Alcaraz, now Djokovic will face either Casper Rude or Alexander Zverev in the final. Significantly, Novak Djokovic has now come very close to creating history. Both Rafael Nadal and Djokovic have won 22 Grand Slam titles. This time if Djokovic is successful in winning the title, he will become the player with the most number of 23 Grand Slams and create history. He will also go ahead of Rafael Nadal. On the other hand, if Novak captures this Grand Slam, he will not only become the player with the most Grand Slam wins, but will also reach the top position in the list of tennis players.
