Carlos Alcaraz beat Novak Djokovic to win this year’s Wimbledon final on Sunday.
It is the Spaniards’s a second straight title at the All England Club.
Alcaraz now has four Grand Slams and a perfect record in major finals.
The 21-year-old Spaniard has won back-to-back Wimbledon titles, the 2022 US Open and last month secured his first French Open crown.
Djokovic has been wearing a knee support all fortnight having had surgery on a torn meniscus 39 days ago and despite saving three championship points to break back in the third set it was Alcaraz who edged the tie-break to seal a stunning 6-2 6-2 7-6 (7-4) victory.
“Honestly it is a dream for me winning this trophy,” Alcaraz said.
“I did an interview when I was 11 or 12 and said my dream is to win Wimbledon. I’m fulfilling my dream.
“For me this is the most beautiful tournament, the most beautiful court and the most beautiful trophy.
“When it was 40-0 I was seeming so far away, Djokovic is an unbelievable fighter, I knew he was going to have his chances. It was difficult but I tried to stay calm going into the tie-break and tried to play my best tennis. I was glad at the end I could find the solutions.”
