Here we go guys: Alcaraz to serve for the match

6-5…

 

[tented]

Novak’s serve is helping him tremendously today.

Moment of truth for the Kid

 

[kskate2]

He did it! No freaking way!

 

[Moxie]

He did it!! He's beaten Nadal and Djokovic in successive days and he's just turned 19.

 

[tented]

I think if Alcaraz is going to win, he needs to do it now. If it goes to a TB, Novak will win.

I WAS WRONG! YES!!!!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Youngest player to defeat a No 1 player in 17 years
Also the youngest player to beat Nadal and Novak back to back on a clay court

 

[kskate2]

I WAS WRONG! YES!!!!

And I was right about learning his lesson. YAY!!!!!!!

 

[tossip]

Carlito is the answer ..just lost for words

 

[tented]

And I was right about learning his lesson. YAY!!!!!!!

Actually, Alcaraz is the first player to beat Nadal AND Djokovic on Clay in back to back matches.

The sky is the limit for this young buck!

Not taking anything away from Djoke. I thought he played well, but as he and the rest of the tour is finding out, this kid is absolutely mind-blowingly fearless.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I have no words left to express regarding Alcaraz....he is just wonderful for tennis and we are blessed to watch him play

 

[Moxie]

They just said this: Only teenager to beat Nadal on clay. Ever.

 

[rafanoy1992]

I am just hoping Alcaraz gets one rival to make Tennis A LOT more fun to watch in the future!

I’m getting worried about Rafa’s status as being the last SuperTeenager(winning a GS)..Carlos is fierce force of nature.Congratulations on his accomplishments so far.

 

[kskate2]

And he goes into the final w/ a huge advantage over whoever wins the Maury match.
