Novak Djokovic received uninvited visitors during training at Wimbledon.

They haven’t met yet, but for many fans and experts it’s the logical Wimbledon final: Carlos Alcaraz (20) against Novak Djokovic (36), world number 1 against 2. And the possible endgame addition is already something to talk about. to talk before she is even repaired.

Rumors first circulated that Carlos Alcaraz Gonzales (52), the Spaniard’s father, would have filmed the 23-time Grand Slam winner during training. After the quarterfinal win against Holger Rune (20, ATP 6), the 20-year-old then says: “That’s probably true.”

Actually, no one comes to Aorangi’s training field, journalists and spectators have to stay outside. Only tennis professionals and their entourage are allowed access – and Papa Alcaraz seems to have used this for espionage.

But the winner of the 2022 US Open defends his father, who was also a tennis player: “He is a big tennis fan. He not only looks at me, but also at other people during training. So it is likely that he filmed the training if he can see Djokovic in real life.”

However, Alcaraz junior would not have needed the recordings: «I have many videos of Djokovic on all documents. I don’t think that’s an advantage for me now.”

Djokovic ‘not completely relaxed’

And what does the Serbian think of the visit? “We are all in this situation, the circumstances do not allow privacy during training, even if I would like more,” the seven-time Wimbledon champion tells the “b92” portal. He is “not completely relaxed” because everyone can look over his shoulder.

Djokovic is known for approaching his training like a serious fight. That is why he needs the necessary concentration. “The bottom line is you don’t want to give your rivals the impression of weakness or nervousness.”

Will there be a final duel for title and number 1?

He probably shouldn’t have been happy with the uninvited guest, but that doesn’t change the fact that Djokovic is still a contender for the gold trophy with the pineapple on it. He also finds his potential opponent in the final: “Everyone knows that he is the big favorite.”

Alcaraz adds one more. “I have the confidence, I have the level. Yes, I am able to win the tournament.” No one disputes that, but first the semi-final hurdle Daniil Medvedev (27, ATP 3) must be taken.

In addition to the eighth Wimbledon title – he would equal Roger Federer’s (41) record at Church Road – Djokovic is pursuing another goal. If he wins the tournament, he will be number 1 in the world again. This also applies if he reaches the final and Alcaraz does not. The Italian Jannik Sinner (21, ATP 8), Djokovic’s opponent in the semifinals, could already destroy all ambitions. (che)
