In a thrilling Wimbledon men's final, Carlos Alcaraz dispatched Novak Djokovic 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 (4) on Sunday, capturing his fourth Grand Slam title at just 21 years old. The rematch of last year's championship saw Alcaraz dominate, despite a brief stumble in the third set.
The Centre Court crowd, including Kate, the Princess of Wales, witnessed Alcaraz's remarkable performance, overcoming last month's French Open victory to secure his second consecutive major win. At age 21, no male player has claimed more Grand Slam titles, with Alcaraz going a perfect 4-0 in major finals.
Djokovic, wearing a gray sleeve on his surgically repaired right knee, struggled and ultimately failed to claim his eighth Wimbledon title and a record 25th major. Less than six weeks removed from knee surgery, Djokovic was not in peak form, and Alcaraz took full advantage.
