Its over. Carlos has a long way to come back

another rematch at the US open. Edge of my seat good. What shot-making by both. Alkaraz sneaking up on Djoker while he served. Choice. Djokavic wry smile a couple of times. Both had physical issues that hampered their abilities. A true battle of the titans. Fantastic. I just wish the other guy had won.
Edit to add. A two handed forehand from Alcaraz? That was epic.
