Novak Djokovic revealed that he is motivated to face world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final as he continues his bid for a 24th Grand Slam title.

After winning in straight sets against Jannik Sinner in the semi-finals, Novak Djokovic secured his spot in his 35th major championship match, giving him the opportunity to tie Roger Federer’s record of eight Wimbledon titles. When questioned about his drive, Djokovic responded, “I don’t feel much difference.” “Winning the title is always my highest ambition,” said the contestant. Regardless matter where it appears in the history books, it isn’t changing.

Being the only male tennis player with 23 Slam titles, I suppose some people think that winning Roland-Garros would be a tremendous relief for me. It isn’t. ‘’I mean, there is pressure. It remains extremely high. I still get shivers, have butterflies in my stomach, and am nervous before every game. I won’t want to approach Sunday’s final any more relaxed than I have prior ones, so the aim must be crystal clear. “I’m going to treat that final like it’s my first. As always, the goal and strategy will be serious and professional.

While Djokovic is vying for his 24th major, 20-year-old Alcaraz is vying for his second and the top spot in the world, and the Serbian said the Spaniard is his current “greatest challenge.” This is likely the best final we could have, according to Djokovic, based on the performances we have witnessed from all of the players.

“We both feel great.” Both of us are playing well.I suppose I want to claim this title outright. I’m eager for it. He’s one of the tour’s fastest players, so it’s going to be my greatest struggle right now from any perspective: physical, mental, and emotional. On the court, he is very much unstoppable. Additionally, I view myself as a very complete player.Up until he started experiencing physical difficulties in Paris [at the French Open semifinal], we had a really solid match.

“Yes, I have played in many more Grand Slam or Wimbledon finals than he has,” I replied. He’s still in fantastic shape. He is really driven. He’s a kid. He’s famished. Let’s eat a feast because I’m also hungry.
