24th for Djokovic on Sunday

I felt so sure on June 9, two days before the Roland Garros finals, that I wrote this: 23rd for Djokovic on Sunday. Thirty-five days later, two days away from the Wimbledon finals, I have no doubts again.

Novak Djokovic will win his 24th Grand Slam title on Sunday!

Why am I so sure?

Novak Djokovic played in eight Wimbledon finals. He won seven times and lost just one (in 2013 against Andy Murray).

His seven Wimbledon titles came in 2011, 2014, 2015, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022.

As Wimbledon was not played in 2020, Djokovic won the last four Wimbledon finals.

Wimbledon is the only grass tournament he plays this season and it is his first tournament since he won his 23rd grand slam title in Paris on June 11.

Be assured Djokovic is healthy and well-rested.

His opponent Carlos Alcaraz will play his first Wimbledon finals ever (junior tournaments included).

And we all saw what happened in Paris. On clay, the surface Alcaraz likes most.

Now with the atmosphere so unique for Wimbledon, that is certainly a high bar to cross for any 20-year-old player.

Carlos Alcaraz will be here for years and will win many Grand Slams trophies. But this Sunday is reserved for Novak.

  1. Well, I was wrong. Alcaraz did surprise me how he handled the situation after the first set. It was the reaction of CHAMPION!
