Early in the fifth set - after Alcaraz had closed off a long rally with a beautiful winner - one of the McEnroes said "this match has been everything anyone could have ever hoped", and I think that's putting it mildly. Carlos proved something today, both to himself and the rest of the world. He's gonna be a problem for anyone with designs on tour success over at least the next twelve or so years.

I wonder how many people that don't much care for Djokovic turned off the Wimbledon men's final after the first set.
