second Wimbledon title

For years, many in men's tennis wondered who could replace the Big Three of Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal atop the sport once they inevitably retire. Together, they have collectively dominated on and off the court, with 66 major titles and superstar personas.

With such big shoes to fill, it seemed unlikely to think anyone would be up for such a challenge. At least not yet.

But on Sunday, just weeks after winning the trophy at the French Open, 21-year-old Carlos Alcaraz proved yet again he was the man for the job, as he defeated Djokovic for the second straight year in the Wimbledon final. And while the 2023 final had been a classic, lasting nearly five hours as the two traded highlight-reel-worthy points and momentum, the 2024 edition was a relatively straightforward affair, with Alcaraz asserting his dominance from the very first game and never letting up. By the end of the 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 (4) match that lasted just two hours and 27 minutes, Alcaraz had secured the fourth major title of his career in front of an adoring Centre Court crowd.
