20-year-old Spanish tennis player carlos alcaraz (ATP 1) Won the championship at Wimbledon 2023!

carlos alcaraz (Spain) [1] – Novak Djokovic (Serbia) [2] – 1:6, 7:6 (8:6), 6:1, 3:6, 6:4
Alcaraz failed at the start of the match. It was an even fight in the first two games, but Novak entered the game faster and better. The Spaniard could not oppose anything to the Serb in the first installment. Result – 1:6 defeat.
The second set started almost the same as the first – in an even fight, but Carlos took the first timeout. True, Nole interrupted the Spaniard’s serve immediately. In Game 4, Carlos had a chance to break again (the score was 30:0, 40:30), but he failed to do so. The tennis players reached the tie-break where Carlos was stronger. Interestingly, before this match, Novak had won 15 tie-breaks in a row.
In the third set, Carlos initially looked fresher (after all, the age gap is great). In the first match, Carlos got Serb’s service and saved 2 time-outs in the 4th game and took the lead 3-1. The fifth game of the second set can be called the game of the year, or at least the tournament. The tennis players (on the grass!) played 26 minutes on Nola’s serve, 13 doubles, Novak managed to argue with referee Carlos to get angry with the court. As a result, at the 7th timeout, Carlitos still took a timeout and then closed the game with a score of 6:1.
After the third installment, Nole took a toilet break and was off the field for about 7 minutes. This probably helped Novak recover a little bit. The first four matches were very tense and struggled. Then Nole opened his second wind and smashed Carlos, who failed. The result is 6:3 in favor of Novak.
It looks like Nole will turn the finisher mode back on and turn the game upside down. However, Carlitos is still in the first place in the ATP rating even though he is only 20 years old, but he already has a lot of experience. And physically the advantage was entirely on the Spanish side. In the first two games, the tennis players saved one break point, and then Carlitos took a break. A few more incredible points were given to Charlie and Nola before the fight was over, but the audience saw no more breaks. The result of the fifth set is 6:4 in favor of Alcaraz. Carlitos, the Wimbledon champion!
It was the third meeting of tennis players. Carlitos won the 2nd fight.
Alcaraz won the Grand Slam for the second time in his career. He won the US Open in 2022.
It was Djokovic’s 35th Grand Slam final. To his credit, he has 7 Wimbledon titles. Novak has won the Grass Major 4 times in a row (2018, 2019, 2021, 2022).
Carlos won the 12th game in a row. Before Wimbledon began, Carlos took the title at the ATP 500 tournament in London.
This was Carlitos’ 15th Round final and his seventh this season. In 2023, he has already won six championships.
Note that Carlos Alcaraz will remain the world’s first racket at the end of Wimbledon 2023.

Alexandra Oleynikova – Madison Keys. Prediction and announcement for the Australian Open match
They will meet in the first round of the Australian Open on January 20. Alexandra Oleynikova (WTA 90) and Madison Keys (WTA 9).
The start of the event is scheduled for 02:30 Kyiv time.
Sport.ua together with a betting partner bet announcing the upcoming fight!
Alexandra Oleynikova
The upcoming match is extremely important for the career of the Ukrainian football player; It will make its debut in the main draw of the Grand Slam tournaments. This success was due to a strong season in which the Ukrainian won three WTA 125 and four ITF tournaments. It is worth noting that all successes were on the field.
Oleynikova is the current winner of the tournament and will start against an overall strong opponent. The Ukrainian did not play in any other tournaments before making his debut at the Australian Open, so his current form is difficult to determine.
Madison Keys
The American athlete needs no introduction; He is ranked in the top 10 and is also the current winner of the Australian Open. Last season, Keys managed to win the first major title of his career and before that he won the title in Adelaide. Then there were still good performances, but such successes were not achieved.
Madison started this season with a tournament in Brisbane, where he beat compatriot Kessler 6:4, 6:3 and then neutral Schneider 6:7, 7:6, 7:6. In the quarter-finals, the American lost to the world’s first racket, Aryna Sabalenka, 3:6, 3:6. There was also a tournament in Adelaide where she failed to defend the title, Keys beating Czech Valentova 6:4, 6:1 and then losing to future finalist Victoria Mboko 4:6, 6:4, 2:6.
To guess
Of course, the tennis players have never met before and Keys is seen as the big favorite in the upcoming match. Judging by the bookmakers’ odds, it all comes down to the question of how much the Ukrainian will lose.
Oleynikova will have to play against a real monster of modern tennis, it is important not to get psychologically exhausted. Although everyone expects a crushing victory for the American, I bet on Alexandra’s success with a match handicap of +7.5 to 1.75, it will be difficult to fight for victory, but it is realistic to impose the fight.
