Novak Djokovic He was the executioner of Spanish tennis at the Paris Olympic Games. In the second round he was eliminated Rafael Nadal and in the end he defeated Carlos Alcaraz. The man of twenty-four Grand Slams, with a hat trick at Roland Garros, beat the king of Paris, his 14 titles, and the last winner of the Grand Slam on clay.
At 37 years old, after a recent meniscus operation and a loss in the Wimbledon final against Alcaraz on his comeback, he fulfilled his golden dream, the Olympic title. He cried with special emotion, because there were also tears from the Murcian, in his case from a logical early disappointment due to the defeat, which softened as the minutes passed as he won a silver medal.
Rafael Nadal Double Olympic champion in Beijing 2008 (singles) and Rio 2016 (doubles), he has been very attentive to the progress of the men’s tournament after leaving Paris.
There is a message of comfort to Alcaraz, also a warning to Djokovic. He emphasized that he had just finished the Golden Slam (the four Grand Slams and the Olympic gold). “Congratulations Novak for completing the Golden Slam and being able to achieve what you want. Well done,” Rafa applauded.
With a historical nod. Remember the Golden Slam with a photo of each: Novak Djokovic, Serena Williams, Rafa Nadal, Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf.
