at this point, it is natural that Djoko-era is going to the end... even if there are just few players able to challenge the Spaniard, this could be pretty interesting for gamblers and a potential advantage for live bets.

personally I was expecting 5 sets like last year but Alcaraz was pretty effective in all games

As a very big fan of Djokovic, I would have been very happy to see him win a Grand Slam one last time, because I believe that was his last chance. We saw today how much difference age makes, because a Djoko in his Prime would not have lost so easily. Nevertheless, I have to praise Alcarez, he played very hard and deserved the victory. The players from the new generation are simply physically fitter than Djoko and only for this reason he has a hard time, otherwise Djoko is still mentally and technically one of the best.
A sad moment for Djokovic fans but to be honest it was Alcaraz fitness that helped him win this title today. I placed a bet on Djokovic and lost it. I knew that Alcaraz have more chances to win but it was my love with Djokovic that i bet on him.
The game was totally in control of Alcarez and not at any point it looked that Djokovic could come back. By the way, in the 3rd game Alcarez had three Championship points but he failed to take it. At that point, there was a minor belief that Djokovic could come back in the game but still, he lost the third set (which proved to be the last set) by 7-5.
And my prediction of at least 4 sets didnt happen either. I only saw the first 2 sets
and In the 3rd set up to 2 games each, at that point I thought Djokovic will start
his run to challenge.....but not.
So nobody would have expected an outright three-set victory, but congratulations to Alcatraz for defending their title from last year. Djokovic also missed out on his 25th major title, but he still has a chance here and there.
I am of the mindset not in thinking that Djokovic isnt going to win any more,
there is Alcaraz and Sinner as a minimum who can beat him any day now
on any surface. Sadly the baton from the 3 GOATS has been handed to the
next generation.

Carlos Alcaraz won his second title at Wimbledon, showing that he will be one of the new champions in the post-Big 3 era. It was good for Djokovic to reach the final but he didn't play well in the final match. At his age, this performance is still admirable, but it's getting harder and harder for him to win another title because of his age. It was fun to watch the two players face each other, we will be watching more of Alcaraz now. Spain won at Wimbledon, now let's see what happens at Euro 2024.

Today before start of the match I was having strong feeling we will have 5 set match with both will be tried their best for having this title but after end of the first set I was shocked because Alcaraz having amazing development, and he completely smashed Djokovic with his power services and game this was really amazing match for the new kid in the court he completely outclassed Novan Djokovic he was having no answers of his questions which was he asking throughout match.Third set bring some hopes alive but at the end Alcaraz is having better player and now most chances he is going to rule the tennis in coming era with Sinner which is also having good quality and consistency even in this event he was not able to give his best, but things are now looking for end of an era and new generation is going to rule here for next decade.

What the heck is going on in Wimbledon? 
I mean Alcaraz is destroying Alcaraz, but now the nerves are getting to him. If Djokovic wins this game now and takes the 6-5 lead, I think that he can win the tie break. It would be amazing for the fans because so far it was damn boring.

The first game of the first set took 14 minutes before it was won by Alcaraz. He is looking in supreme form but Djokovic would not let this go away so easily. It will be a tough final for Djokovic and he will be looking for his 8th Wimbledon title.
Going with the old school, I think at some point the experience will matter
Got 2.65 odds with Djokovic
I watched both semi final matches. I want to see Djokovic win another title, he's too close to that. He went into the semi final fit after his opponent withdrew in the quarter final and beat Musetti without a giving away a set. He didn't waste much energy, energy management is very important for an athlete at this age. Alcaraz also got past Medvedev without much difficulty. Both players will go into the match in good shape. Djokovic has the opportunity to avenge last year. I hope the better player will win and that better player will be Djokovic.
Well Djokovic is not close to retirement yet (he's getting close though) and has proven
his effectiveness for sure.
Its going to be a very interesting high level match, both will be hard to beat and
Alcaraz will be buoyed on in the belief/hopes that Spain with the Euros tonight.
At least 4 sets anyway today.
Yesterdays womens final saw Paolini beaten again in her second GS appearance.
It was a great match, very close and two great champions with both after
match speeches great to see.
Paolini which is having impressive year with after losing final of the French final now she is improved and playing with confidence hopefully she will be able to fight till last point for her first big title and this could be also second career win for her in 2024 right now we are having 2–2 in third set entertaining game from these ladies for the title.
Paolini messed up towards the end by hitting outside again and again making it easy for Krejcikova to win without even going for a tie-breaker. I guess she couldn't handle the pressure at the end. Krejcikova played really well and deserved the win though.Am expecting the big Alcaraz vs Djokovic final to last 5 sets with Alcaraz emerging as the winner. Excited!

Currently, we are in third set of the final which is playing between two players which were not expected to be here in this final but after having impressive performance in early games they were able to achieve this task and now having third set of the game after having win in first set Krejcikova lost his rhythm and lost second set with same score on which she won first set now in third set we have both players giving his best and trying to win their first title.
Paolini which is having impressive year with after losing final of the French final now she is improved and playing with confidence hopefully she will be able to fight till last point for her first big title and this could be also second career win for her in 2024 right now we are having 2–2 in third set entertaining game from these ladies for the title.

Alcaraz vs Djokovic! Round 2 surprisingly since I did not expect Djokovic to come this far considering his recent form and knee injury. I feel that the Spaniard will end up winning once again.
This will probably be another 5 set encounter. Excited! Also, him winning along with Spain winning against England in Euro 2024 would be epic for me.

Medvedev is good players, but sadly he is consistently falling down against Alcaraz quality which is surely a big problem for him if he wants to have something good in his future he needs to be had some improvement in his quality which is now not ideal for having competition against players which are going to rule in coming years as he beats Sinner I was having hope he will be able to have some good competition in semifinal, but he falls down badly in four set game after winning first set.
Exactly Medvedev had a good start, started the second set well, then got a break and somehow didn't recover and couldn't manage a turnaround.

In second semifinal which is currently playing between Djokovic and Musetti look like easy win for the champion player Djokovic which is leading match after winning first set without any problem but in second set we have some resistance from the Musetti which is having service break in first game of the set.
Musseti had a good match against Fritz, but Djokovic is a completely different player and he had no chance, but for Musseti to reach the semi-finals was definitely a good performance.
Two interesting matches, Alcaraz and Djokovic are two great tennis players who are also at the top of the ATP rankings, they can always put on truly amazing matches and when the conditions are very favorable, everything will definitely end in victory.
Alcaraz managed to achieve surprising victory over Medvedev after being defeated in the first set and Djokovic managed to achieve an absolute victory in three sets over Musetti, these are two semi-final matches where the results can already be predicted.
Wimbledon final itself between Alcaraz and Djokovic will take place tomorrow and we can see them competing very fiercely, I sure Djokovic will definitely be much better, I trying to make Djokovic the favorite in this match.

Medvedev v Alcaraz is starting in about 10 minutes, odds indeed suggest Alcaraz
as favourite 3.72 v 1.28. I believe we are going to have a 5 set match here with at
least 1 tie break so an over 39.5 is on the cards.
Musetti has it all to do later, odds are 7.0 - 1.1, not betting on this one.

It was always going to be a tough ask to beat Alcaraz who has looked really strong
at Wimbledon this year as the defending champion. My over 39.5 bet got realised
anyway, even without the 5th set.
Medvedev as well as some other top 5 seeds need to lift their game a notch to overtake
Alcaraz and Djokovic when it comes to best of 5 set slams.
no surprise today... and we will see again the same final of the last year.
Of course Musetti was trying to complete an impossible victory but it was really to much for him.
Medvedev was able to win at least one set but it wasn't enough.
considering the physical conditions before the start of tournament, I was not expecting to see Djokovic at this level of form but he is a top player. Nothing more to add.

Me neither, didnt expect to see Djokovic in the final, I thought Sinner would be there!
