An epic match ended with an epic celebration by Novak Djokovic at the Cincinnati Open.
After he won, Djokovic dropped his racket and fell to the ground as the moment sunk in.
“Crazy. Honestly, I don’t know what else I can say. Tough to describe,” Djokovic said on the court after the match. “Definitely one of the toughest matches I’ve played in my life, regardless what tournament, category, level, or what player. It’s unbelievable.”The win was Djokovic’s third in Cincinnati and helped him get a bit of revenge on Alcaraz, who defeated him in the final at Wimbledon last month.
The dramatics continued into the deciding set as Djokovic could take advantage of a 5-3 lead and squandered a pair of match points away.
