“The opposite viewpoint is that the best way he misplaced was fairly worrisome. If we keep in mind that semi-final towards Sinner on the Australian Open and now towards Alcaraz at Wimbledon, that is the second huge match in a row towards two of his now greatest rivals the place Djokovic didn’t present up within the first two units.
“I’m unsure why Novak rushed so many instances to the online when he noticed that it’s not working, and it appears to me that he possibly panicked, just like the best way he performed and acted throughout that US Open 2021 last towards Medvedev.
“Additionally, I don’t suppose he was 10/20 of first serve factors gained, and sooner or later he managed to win solely 66 p.c of factors after his first serve, which I don’t suppose occurred that always.”
Alcaraz rose to the event
Nevertheless, Ozmo asserts that maybe crucial issue on this match was Alcaraz’s stage when it mattered.
“For me, I don’t suppose Carlos needed to do a lot within the first two units, and for the primary set and a half, I might say he was simply taking part in respectable. He was profiting from Djokovic’s errors.
“However as soon as he needed to increase his stage, boy did he increase it, particularly within the third set when Novak performed that nice sport, I believe at 3-2 within the third set, and Alcaraz had all of the solutions.
“What I’m likely most impressed with Alcaraz is the best way he reacted after he squandered these three match factors. John McEnroe used to say that the way you react to the choke is what counts, and Alcaraz managed to react completely.
“So for Novak, it’s a bit bittersweet. I don’t suppose anybody anticipated it to be this straightforward.”
Can Djokovic bounce again?
Time and time once more, Djokovic has bounced again after a consequence like Sundays. You solely must look again to the months following final yr’s Wimbledon last, the place the Serbian beat Alcaraz in a Cincinnati epic, then raced previous him in Turin.
“Like Novak stated, he’s at all times risen within the face of adversity. So let’s see,” surmised Ozmo.
“Two huge objectives for him till the top of the season Olympics and New York. Excellent news is that he performed his first finals this season. Clearly, he’s not on the stage Sinner and Alcaraz are in the mean time, however he’s been recognized to show doubters flawed time and time once more.
“So I suppose he’ll most likely do it this time as effectively, though he’s 37.”
