What a humble sport man who said "thank you" to his opponent when shaking hands at the net, he is the one and the only one I have ever seen so far....players easily get self-proud when they got a higher and higher career level, but no matter how far Alcaraz goes, he always stays at his sportsmanship and humble manner!!
The only things that might prevent Alcaraz from becoming an all time great is injuries, his indecisiveness at times and unexpected dips in his level in matches like the 2nd set of this match. I really want him to win this title. I hope he works on those few lapses in his game.
He manages injuries well and four slams already. He might become youngest career slam winner and write his name in history. He is on way to become double digit winner and big three lost way more at his age. Give hime time to grow
After a battle in the 2nd set, Carlos just dialled in n steamrolled his way thru the 3rd set to convincingly take this win. In the process his great agility n superb drop shots were once more on display...bravo Carlitos
6-1 and 3-1 will test ANYONE's resolve. You're talking about 9-2 before he cocked up. He most likely dialed it down to make it a fairer fight. Can't do that at a grand slam though. He's got to develop the killer instinct and shellac opponents when given the chance.
Shevchenko battled. Losing that second set after the double break back is killer. That was his chance to stay in the match, you gotta imagine all wind is out of the sails once you lose that
I'm happy to see Carlos playing competitively again and healthy. I just hope that the offseason training to improve his serve, consistency and concentration pays off this year.
I HAVE WATCHED THIS SPORT FOR OVER 40 YRS..., HE WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN EVEN IF HE DOESN'T WIN ANOTHER SLAM..., KING CARLOS... GREAT OF ALL TIME AND THE MOST EXCITING, FUN, TENNIS I Q NEXT LEVEL....
@@jeffreykaufmann2867You can't say that. Alcaraz is playing against much weaker competition and the big 3 were always standing in the way of each other sharing the slams.

i think most men know that the other guy is better or just playing his best no need to pout, it's just most women aren't overwhelming the other like Serena would so they all think they stand a chance against each other.
Woman tend to want to bring each other down in life, on the tennis court included.😂 it's always woman that get bitchy and petty toward each other, it happens less between men.
Not a tennis expert. Just comparing the footwork between Shevchenko and Alcaraz. I can see Shevchenko 1. Doesn’t consistently split step. May have caused some reaction lag. 2. Didn’t recover fast after service. Alcaraz exploited these with direction changes, and deep service returns near Shevchenko feet. Can see Shevchenko struggled to react fast to direction changes, or deep service returns. Guess split steps and fast service recoveries are key. Just my observations. Great game from both nonetheless. Respect.
He still has his midmatch downhills/dips/hibernation - 4 games in the second set and MP's at the end. So his mental game still isn't perfect. And sadly looks like the offseason didn't do anything for his serve. But damn if that backhand hasn't come together. I think Carlos needs to hire someone to work with Ferrero; who's sole and only job is to improve Carlos' serve. Whatever he had going on these last two wimbledon finals against Djokovic. He needs that serve but everywhere.
Felicidades Carlos, ahora a afinar detalles como el desconcentrarse y permitir remontadas como en el segundo set y meter más primeros servicios, solo eso 👍
1. Je trouve que Shevchenko a vraiment bien joué, sauf que ce n’est pas suffisant face à Carlito : le score du 1er set ne témoigne pas de la qualité de son tennis. 2. Au 2ème set, il a mené 5-4, service à suivre et il a suffi à l’espagnol de monter son niveau de jeu pour le bloquer à 5 pour finir 5-7 : il témoigne là de son niveau. 3. Si Carlito joue comme ça durant les 2 semaines, il va remporter ce GC qui lui manque encore. Et je le lui souhaite sincèrement. Vamos, Carlito !!!
Sometimes, Carlitos has to experience defeats to challenge and improve his previous performances and become a better player. This will make him a great player in the league of the Big 3 (Federer, Nadal and Djokovic), which is inevitable. I hope he stays healthy, disciplined and focused and win this GS to complete his trophies and break another record.
@@cregenda yeah, Carlos Alcaraz used to celebrate some of his victories by making round circles with his fingers and placing them up to his face making raccoon eyes. I’m not exactly sure why he used to do this, but I think it refers to the fact that he was seeing the ball really well in the match and therefore had large eyes I guess? The tennis commentators would call it raccoon eyes! It was a strange ritual at best LOL 😂
Alcaraz’s serve still looks poor and top players will be able to break his serve very often. His last serve to win match was awesome but he needs to add some consistency.
😂😂he is not, but we also havent seen Alcaraz peak, For Fed to be as dominant as he was with a one hander tells you everything, Roger almost bageled Murray 6-0, 6-0 at atp finals, he bageled opponents at semis of grass court events and he would dial it down to make it competitive as he would feel bad for the fans, when Carlos reaches that level we can compare
@@networth00yes. More titles does not mean he was a better player at the top of his game. Actually, even at his best he was not even close to the level of domination and excitement Fed’s best game brought about.
To be honest, Alcaraz just looks OKAY. His serve is actually worse. I’m not even looking at Shevchenko, I’m specifically looking at Carlos. He is looking overall less threatening on hard courts in this match for real! He’s a talented player and a champion, but he needs to actually get better on hard court because his game seems good but there are a TON of better hard court players that could have beaten him in this performance. Let’s see what Round 2 holds.
Top 10 players are much to anticipate their next shot selection. Of course you look like superman when you can read what the next shot is before it leaves the opponent's racquet.
Was für ein Wahnsinn. Alcaraz ist einfach so gut, so schnell, so clever. Shevchenko hat ihm sicher so wenig geschenkt, wie er konnte, Hut ab! Darüberhinaus muss ich ja als schwuler Mann sagen: Alcaraz ist außerdem so zu anbeißen (sorry), insbesondere, weil er seine Achseln nicht rasiert... 😁 What madness. Alcaraz is just so good, so quick, so clever. Shevchenko must have given him as little as he could, hats off! What's more, as a gay man I have to say: Alcaraz is also so scrumptious (sorry), especially because he doesn't shave his armpits...😁
What a humble sport man who said "thank you" to his opponent when shaking hands at the net, he is the one and the only one I have ever seen so far....players easily get self-proud when they got a higher and higher career level, but no matter how far Alcaraz goes, he always stays at his sportsmanship and humble manner!!
Carlitos is the best player to watch . I love the way he plays
The variety is refreshing since RF retired.

he already is an all time great. He just might not reach big 3 level due to the factors you mentioned which I agree.
@@ThePacemaker45 all time great with 4 slams? ur watching a sport that is more than 100 years old.

Does he often have a 2nd set hibernation ? 😂
Hi dear
Thanks for extended highlights
This level of tennis from Alcaraz is absurd.
Will see about that when he plays serious opponents
He wasn’t that good here if we’re being honest. Serve mechanics looks off
@@danielpp23 Yes, coaches have changed his serve mechanics and added lead tape to the neck of his racquet....will take adjusting to....

Shevchenko was really great as well!!
He didn't really do bad and was keeping up, but has not had enough exposure to Carlos' game to be able to anticipate well enough to counterpunch.
Not the first time Alcaraz fought all the way back. That’s alcaraz for you. Beijing finally he was 3-0 down in the final against sinner.
Alcaraz hace ver el tennis como si fuera muy facii. Que maravilloso es verle jugar. Que talento parece que acariciara la bola. ❤❤

😭😭😭😭😭
We want to appreciate (shevchenko) this shot eventually the crowd loves it at 3:15 , starts from 3:00
Alcaraz is so much fun to watch. Creative, powerful and charismatic. Most talented player out there outside Federer and Nadal.
Sinner has entered the chat.
Except maybe the guy who hold the best head to head record against both of them and more slams. Duh.
That drop shot is so filthy.
Alcaraz is the only player who can realistically keep Sinner from the title.
YEP. Med is ok, Djoker is ok too.
Carlos bringing great aggression into returning the 2nd serves. Think we'll see more of that this tournament. Good effort by Shevchenko.
Alcaraz for 5th title
Pretty sure winning this AO will also give him the career GS (4 Major Grand Slams). Australian Open is the only one he hasn't won yet
@@vgg31 At his age, he is on a pace to exceed Djokovic's grand slam totals.

Beast mode on.
Carlitos is looking sharp with the haircut.
Excellent crowds at AO in first round matches and even qualifiers. Seems like way more people in stadium than US Open at this stage.
Go Carlitos! 💪
I can’t get over how friendly the men are at the net compare to the women most of the times!!!😅
Carlitos is special

The fact that he didn't play at Rod Laver arena is total joke
Alex. And Ruud play in Rod Arena😂😂😂
Because Novak Djokovic, a 10 time Australian Open champion, was playing on Rod Laver.
I'm a huge Novak Djokovic fan but I must say that I absolutely love watching Carlos Alcarez!
Same.
Me too bro
How are doing
He still has his midmatch downhills/dips/hibernation - 4 games in the second set and MP's at the end. So his mental game still isn't perfect.

He is short . Just 1.8m . Its hard to improve his serves
Show me another 1'83 player who has better serve than Carlos. Mph and %.
He revamped his serve mechanic during off season and he's doing it all for long term gains so the struggles now are just temporary.
!vamos Carlitos!!
Felicidades Carlos, ahora a afinar detalles como el desconcentrarse y permitir remontadas como en el segundo set y meter más primeros servicios, solo eso 👍

Good Job my hero ❤❤❤❤❤
Looks like CA is picking this one up. He’s looking solid.
Looked horrible beginning in 2nd set, I would love to see him go all the way.

Had to turn down the volume. It was getting inappropriate 😂

alcaraz isn't going to give you any rhythm. That's why Medvedev has such a huge problem playing against alcaraz

Alcaraz looks even stronger this year...
Alcaraz’s serve still looks poor and top players will be able to break his serve very often. His last serve to win match was awesome but he needs to add some consistency.
It looks average, not poor.
he's been changing his serve for the past year so he wont get too many injuries to his arm
The moaning on both sides is so funny when it gets intense.
BALL HEAVY AF
He is using a much heavier racket than before.
I am a Federer fan and even I have to admit that at his peak, Carlos Alcaraz is the best tennis player of all time.
