Finally Djokovic was able to win his first gold medal, unfortunately I missed this match and looking at the statistics it was clearly a tight match because it took about 3 hours even though it was only two sets. Djokovic proved that he still has the ability to compete but for the hardcourt season there might be some tournaments that he will miss and only focus on the US Open to defend his title
This was one of the most hectic game I watch in recent time because before start of final things were clearly favourable for the young Alcaraz, but we have "The Joker" as his best and with this win now we can expect interesting competition into coming Grand Slam The US Open where these both will meet again.

Novak Djokovic describe his win as one of the best in his sporting career which is reflecting how important was this win for him and his career before start of the game we have serious concerns about his knee injury and playing against Alcaraz on clay was also not favourable for him but still he achieves his best win of career and first Olympic Gold Medal.

Now we have few days left in this big event hopefully all will be ok for Djokovic, and he will be available for another impressive performance inafter this event with his quality and consistency.

The emotion was on both sides, Alcaraz could not contain himself in an interview that was being done, it is in Spanish but words are unnecessary. Great Athlete  NJ, symbol of what these Olympic Games mean, incredible feat to achieve gold, especially with the odds against, I saw them up to @5

High emotions indeed, this is proof that while these guys are not getting paid,
no points earned playing for their country means so much!

That match was seriously high quality, super match and Djokovic was back at
his top again, something to behold.

Well done to all those who had a bet on Djokovic. 2 tie breaks got my over 23.5
bet.



Congrats to Gold medalists and Golden slam winner Errani! Italy Tennis does it
again and a massive addition to Jasmine's great year.

Yes, it was worth watching this final match. Although the game was finished in 2 sets but it was won by Djokovic 7-6, 7-6. Both players fought hard but Djokovic experience paid off this time and he can say that he has taken the revenge for the Wimbledon loss.
By the way, in this match, Alcaraz looked a bit more nervous and tense as compared to his opponent.
Also after the Djokovic winning the Gold medal, we saw some emotional scenes as her daughter said that her daddy is the best.  Smiley

The big one coming up today - Djokovic v Alcaraz - I hope this is going 3 sets.
Also a must watch is the Womens final Errani/Paolini v Andreeva/Snaider.

The big final has already started and as of now, we are witnessing some great tennis. To everyone's surprise, Djokovic is leading the first set at 4-3. I hope Djokovic continues with the same speed and form for three sets (if we go into the third set).

Seeing the odds, Alcaraz gives you 1.5 odds while betting on Djokovic will give very handsome odds of over 2.7.
Since i want Djokovic to win this Gold Medal, I am betting on him. I know that Alcaraz may win this but i can't bet on him because i love Djokovic game more. Sometimes you know that other person has more chance of winning but just out of love for a player, you can't bet on him.  Roll Eyes

Yes definitely great result for Italian tennis. For sure these are unique results since these results were never achieved ...

Musetti said that here he didnt earn ATP point but It was the same a great result to be achieved. Roll Eyes

I was not expecting dominance like this from the Zheng, but she has done good work and have early service break after these things gone against Vekic, and she lost first set with the score of 6–2 now we are in second set where Vekic is doing tough job and not allowing opponent to have dominance even Zheng having again service break, but she fights back.

Now we are having 3–3 both are doing their best for having win but look like we are going for the third set which could be interesting because both are giving their best and trying to have their historic Gold Medal in these Olympics games where many big names already out of the competition due to their poor performance.




Qinwen Zheng really played well and got the Gold medal for China by defeating the Croatian tennis player Donna Vekić. She won by 6-2, 6-3. Yeah the second set was a close one initially but the final results will tell you that Zheng win the three consecutive games in the 2nd set to get the gold medal.  Smiley Of course, she is the better of the two.  Smiley and it was a memorable moment for her.
We still have Women's Doubles Gold Medal to be played tomorrow.



I watched that final, the level was very high and Zheng's performance was
definitely a top 10 performance.

The big one coming up today - Djokovic v Alcaraz - I hope this is going 3 sets.
Also a must watch is the Womens final Errani/Paolini v Andreeva/Snaider.

Musetti took Bronze yesterday in the Mens singles and the Italians today will get
Silver today. All round great result for Italy.

Unfortunately Zheng was much better today. She is a better player overall as well.

It is a huge success for Vekić and Croatia, the first female tennis Olympic medal and the first one in singles after Ivanišević's bronze from 1992.

Now we have few minutes left in final between Zheng vs Vekic as odds are clearly favouring Zheng @1.4 but it's never been easy for her to won Gold Medal against Vekic which is doing impressive job in this event and looking for Gold Medal this is going to be interesting game between these players from China and Croatia both won one match each before this final.
At least in the first set Zheng appeared quite dominant by successfully taking the first set and the second set Vekic still looked difficult to win her game, but the situation might change even though Zheng still looks solid enough to get a gold medal, and defeating Swiatek is a big capital for this Chinese tennis player to achieve good achievements at this Olympics.
With several top players in the women's division choosing to skip the Olympics, it looks like Swiatek will easily win gold but it turns out not to be and the bronze goes to Swiatek.

I am disappointed as Nadal and Alcaraz lost their chances to won Gold Medal in double event, but few minutes back we have winner from the Australia Ebden and Peers won their match against Ram and Krajicek now we have another game with the USA is going to win Bronze Medal as well in this event.

I am having no doubt about this Alcaraz is going to have his first Olympics Gold Medal in tomorrow game because currently he is playing amazing and no one can stop him from winning this game on Clay with Djokovic having knee problems.

And the girls from Italy (Errani and Paolini) reach the final in "double"! Great result (it's the first time for female Italian players).
Great period for Paolini. Wimbledon, French Open and now this Final! A year with many big results that we haven't never seen here in Italy (both for female and male).
Without Sinner on the Olympics there was a kind of "fear" about the chance for a Medal for Italy but Musetti can still reach the final... Yes his opponent is one of the worst player to meet on the field (only 1 victory over 7 match!) but lets see Roll Eyes
Meanwhile we have the first finalist .... ALCARAZ!

Ah its great to see the Italian pair in the final, Errani because she is a "veteran"
of the womens game and for Paolini because she is having a great season so far.
Guaranteed a medal and I'm sure they will be delighted even if its Silver.
They are slight favourites at 1.72.

Swiatek was not herself, she had problems with her forehand strike. Zheng had a
great performance and she will make the final against Vekic very interesting.
Really hard to pick a Gold medal winner for tomorrow, I would probably pick Vekic ATM....

Djokovic - concerns for his Knee, he was a bit worried after the match. He plays
Musetti today, could be a chance for Musetti to win this @ 2.76! or at least an
over bet for Musetti to take a set perhaps.

Alcaraz won his game against Auger-Aliassime and have spot into final where now we are waiting for the winner from the second semifinal which is going to play between top seed Djokovic vs Musetti where top seed Djokovic is hot favourite for win but his knee injury concerns creating some feud about his win in this game Musetti doing good job in last few games as well.


Cant believe Musetti failed to put up a bigger challenge to Djokovic. Anyway now
we have a replay of the Wimbledon final, the way Alcaraz is playing I cant see him
being beaten with the performances he has been putting in, thats reflective in
the odds 2.92 v 138, just need to figure ot to go under or over 22.5....

I was expecting she is going to add Gold Medal into her tally of wins, but sadly we have to face these realities as well, but now few minutes back we have won for the Swiatek against Slovenian Schmiedlova for the Bronze Medal game, and we will have final tomorrow between Zheng and Vekic even odds are clearly favouring Zheng, but I have strong feeling Vekic can give surprise in this Gold Medal game.

Paolini suffers defeat in single event but now having good chance of winning Gold Medal in women doubles as she is going to have final against Russian girls where she and her partner looking strong enough for having Gold Medal.

@Joca97 now time is having change and Rafael Nadal is also having too many problems around him so just because of this now he is not able to perform as he needed most chances now after having Gold Medal with Alcaraz he will announce about his retirement.

Today we have few huge upsets as inform Zheng beats ranked 1 Swiatek and have spot into final where most chances with her current form she can win Gold Medal which could be historic for the China in tennis Olympics.

In men, we have Medvedev and Zverev both gone, so things are looking pretty clear for the Alcaraz, Djokovic for having top ranks and third spot is looking interesting between few players.

Im hoping that Djokovic didnt hurt his knee too much in yesterdays game against Tsitsipas. I was thinking it was all over for him with how he was moving but he was able to recover. I wonder what kind of effect will it have against Musetti today. He also always struggles with him but wins in the end.

After having few results now I have feeling mostly players were here just for show up because their performance was not as they needed to give and having good chance of winning medals for their countries.

No way - players are here in search of Olympic Gold. This is one of Tennis' top
accolades just like winning a grand slam. We had this point made already on this
page.



Quarter finals today in the womens side. Kerber has found great form to beat
Paolini yesterday but faces a tough opponent in Zheng. I believe Kerber
is finding results because this is her last season before retirement and
so is playing with a degree of freedom and a slightly different mindset.

Unfortunately, Angelique lost today against Zhang. The match was super exciting, but Kerber looked a bit tired, which is not surprising as German veteran had a tough match against Paolini as you mentioned. At some point, the match started to resemble U12 junior tennis with almost exclusively lob shots. Unfortunately, these attempts to conserve energy failed as Kerber lost the 3rd set on a tie break.

Another amazing match was Alcaraz/Rafa vs US doubles specialist duo Ram/Krajicek. Unfortunately, the Olympic dream has ended for Rafa: their team lost 2:6, 4:6. The opponents were showing typical doubles play with great serves and frequent net takeovers.
  

Thats a pity for Rafa, Olympic Gold is gone with the defeat to those specialist doubles
with vast experience both as doubles and doubles partners.



Zheng did well to beat in form Kerber but Zheng is herself in form coming into
this tournament.

She has taken the first set against Swiatak and its on serve in the second set.
She looked a bit troubled in the first set but like all No.1's first set loss doesnt
spell the end. Still heavy favourite @ 1.36

Rafael Nadal is just not even close to his good form not even close to a solid form. It wasnt realistic for him to win a medal at the olympics even with Alcaraz in the doubles. They arent doubles players and Nadal in singles isnt good now and we seen it against Djokovic
