DJOKOVIC OUTLASTS ALCARAZ TO FINALLY WIN ELUSIVE GOLD MEDAL IN PARIS

 Novak Djokovic has claimed his first-ever gold medal in his fifth appearance at an Olympic Games after defeating Carlos Alcaraz in a gut-busting battle at Roland Garros in Paris.

The 24-time Grand Slam winner fought to a 7-6(4), 7-6(2), win over his Spanish nemesis who beat him in straight sets last month in the Wimbledon final. In a match of very fine margins, Djokovic held his nerve to become the first Serbian in history to win an Olympic tennis event and the oldest player to win the men’s title in the Open Era. In what was one of his best performances on the court in recent years given the enormity of the occasion, he hit 16 winners and won 74% of his first service points.

Djokovic has now achieved a career Golden Slam which includes winning every major event and the Olympics at least once. The only other players to have achieved this in singles are Andre Agassi, Steffi Graf, Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams.

Novak Djokovic wrapped up his 2023 season by adding the ATP Finals trophy to the three major titles he won this year and the Serb immediately set the bar even higher for next season by targeting a 'Golden Slam'.

Djokovic, who won his seventh ATP Finals on Sunday with a straight set win over Jannik Sinner, missed out on Grand Slam this year after losing to Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final.

The 36-year-old told reporters in Turin he wanted a clean sweep of the majors next year as well as the singles gold medal at the Paris Olympics.
