Alkaras vs. Djokovic
Carlos Alcaras (1st place, Spain) and Novak Djokovic (2nd place, Serbia)
men’s tennis ‘new and old emperor showdown’ took place for the third time this year alone.
Alkaras lost 2-1 to Hubert Hurkaci (20th, Poland) in the men’s singles semifinal
on the 7th day of the Men’s Professional Tennis (WTA)
Tour Cincinnati Open (total prize money: $6.6 million) held in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA on the 19th (local time). (2-6 7-6<7-4> 6-3).
In the semifinals that followed, Djokovic defeated Alexander Zverev (17th, Germany) 2-0 (7-6<7-5> 7-5),
completing the final matchup. 카지노사이트위키
Alkaras and Djokovic will face each other three times this year alone.
In the first confrontation of this year, which took place in the semifinals of the French Open in June,
Djokovic relatively easily reversed Alkaras, who showed symptoms of muscle spasms,
eventually set a new record for the most major championships with 23 wins.
Wimbledon Final
However, in the Wimbledon final last month, Alkaras defeated Djokovic after a full set match.
This match, which drew attention as the ‘match of the century’, ended with the coronation of the ‘new emperor’.
If you add the first confrontation between the two, which took place in the semifinals of last year’s Madrid Open, Alkaras leads with a record of 2 wins and 1 loss.
If Alkaras wins over Djokovic again this time, he can take the flow more clearly ahead of the US Open,
the last major tournament of the year that opens on the 28th.
For Djokovic, this is a great opportunity to restore his ego.
Currently, the ranking point gap between Alkaras and Djokovic is 600 points.
If Djokovic wins in this event, which is the ATP Masters 1000 series, he will regain the No. 1 ranking.
The match between Djokovic and Alkaras is scheduled to take place on the 21st at 5:30 am Korean time.
In the women’s division (total prize money of $2,788,468), Coco Goff (5th, USA) defeated Iga Sibiongtech (Poland),
the world’s No. 1, 2-1 (7-6<7-2> 3-6 6-4) ) and reached the WTA 1000 series final for the first time in his life.
Gough
She also became the seventh player as a teenager to reach a WTA 1000 final.
Gough was born in March 2004 and is 19 years old.
Gough remembers reaching the final of her major for the first time in her life at last year’s French Open and having to be content with her runner-up finish.
At that time, the player who defeated Goff in the final was Sibiong Tech.
Gough was on a seven-game losing streak against her Sibiong Tech and her career,
but she picked up her first win on the day in her eighth challenge.
At the post-game press conference, Gough emphasized that she wanted to take revenge on this day,
she mentioned that Djokovic is recording ’19 wins’ against Gael Monpis (211th, France).
After the match, Gough said, “I’m sorry for Gael, but I didn’t want it to be like that relationship between Novak and Gael.
I wanted to close the gap, and I hope to continue to do so in the future.”
I feel really good because I showed today that I can compete on the same level.”
Goff’s opponent in the final was Karolina Mukhova (17th, Czech Republic),
who defeated Arina Sabalenka (2nd place, Belarus) 2-1 (6-7 <4-7> 6-3 6-2).
Goff and Mujoba face each other for the first time.
Mukhova defeated Savalenka in the semifinals of her French Open this year and seems to be in good shape
to establish herself as a ‘nemesis’ by snatching her ankles this time as well.
Mujoba led Sabalenka with 2 wins and 1 loss.
