On this week's Monday Match Analysis with Gill Gross, we'll digest a victory of epic proportions for Carlos Alcaraz, who beat Novak Djokovic in 5 sets to win his 2nd career major title and 1st Wimbledon. We'll explain why Alcaraz's win has almost no equal in the Big 3 era. We'll attempt to make sense of Alcaraz's vast improvement mentally from their previous match in Paris. We'll break down the array of weapons the Spaniard used to win the 5th set. We'll discuss the moments that Novak would love to have back, and why his forehand deserves some blame. Finally, Gill empties out his notes and discusses the silver lining for Djokovic in defeat.
