Djokovic’s technique allows him to go full throttle for hours and hours without getting physically wrecked. Alcaraz, like Nadal, is just not as technically and mechanically efficient as Novak. And really, nobody is.

Even on replay, this is one of the tightest calls I’ve seen. I personally don’t think it’s that obvious. To me it seems like Draper’s racket edge touches the ball as the ball is bouncing. If anything, it seems more clear that he double hit the ball after… To expect the umpire

For those saying Djokovic was faking the injury: Why would he waste multiple hours of a match, nearly on the brink of losing, to pretend he is hurt when he was steamrolling his opponent after the first set? Please realize how foolish that sounds.
