“He is a great example as a young player that has a well-balanced life on and off the court. He has great values in his family and a lot of charisma.”

“He is deservedly one of the greatest 21-year-olds we have seen in this sport. We will see a lot of him in the future no doubt.”

“He is going to win many more Grand Slams, but hopefully in two days not this one.”

Novak Djokovic highlighted the fact that Alcaraz had already beaten him at Wimbledon last year and he is expecting the same energy from the Spaniard this time around. Hailing the Spaniard as a complete player, the Serbian said:

“He has already beaten me here in a thrilling five-setter. I don’t expect anything less than that (on Sunday).”

“He is complete as a player as they come. It is going to take my best ability to beat him.”

Notably, Alcaraz and Djokovic will lock horns in the final on July 14. If the Serbian manages to win on Sunday, then he will level with Roger Federer for most titles at Wimbledon.
