Breaking News: Nick Kyrgios Shocks Tennis World saying Alcaraz Was Easy’ After Stunning Win
Nick Kyrgios has claimed that a “changing of the guard” is now taking place in tennis. His comments come after Carlos Alcaraz defeated Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final for the second year in a row, taking the trophy in straight sets (6-2, 6-2 and 7-6).
With his latest SW19 victory, Alcaraz takes his Wimbledon title tally to two, while it is now four Grand Slam titles overall for the Spaniard – and all by the age of 21. Alvaraz still has a way to go to match Djokovic’s incredible 24 Grand Slam titles, but Kyrgios has claimed he could be the man to take the Serbian’s throne.

Alcaraz has shown himself to be a formidable opponent for Djokovic, having now defeated him in back-to-back Wimbledon finals. He also won the French Open, while fellow youngster Jannik Sinner defeated another promising star, Daniil Medvedev in the final of the Australian Open.
Those three, plus Alexander Zverev, are now at the front of the queue when it comes to Grand Slam events. It represents a significantly different make-up to the last two decades when the likes of Djokovic, Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer consistently won the biggest events on the calendar.
Kyrgios’ claim about Djokovic is not without substance, following Alcaraz’s recent dominance and Serbian’s injury issues amid rumours of retirement. But the 37-year-old has no intention of hanging up his racket just yet, particularly with the Olympics just around the corner.

Speaking after the Wimbledon final, Djokovic said: “As far as coming back here, I mean, I would love to. I don’t have anything else in my thoughts right now that this is my last Wimbledon. I really want to play at least whatever. I don’t have any limitations in my mind. I still want to keep going and play as long as I feel like I can play on this high level.”
The Serbian has also expressed his excitement for the Olympics, adding: “Yeah, let’s keep it going because I still keep going. I still have intentions to play Olympic Games, hopefully have a chance to fight for a medal for my country. On a completely different surface obviously, going back to the place where I got injured some weeks ago. Let’s see.
“Let’s see how physically and mentally I’m going to feel. Hopefully I can find the right tennis ’cause I’m going to need all I have and more to go to the final of the Olympic Games.”
