Novak Djokovic Defeats Carlos Alcaraz in Cincinnati Open Final to Avenge Wimbledon Loss

Djokovic won 5-7, 7-6(7), 7-6(4) in a thrilling three-set match

That lasted three hours and 49 minutes.

The match was a rematch of the Wimbledon final, which Alcaraz won in four sets.

Djokovic was determined to get revenge in Cincinnati, and he played some of his best tennis of the year.

He saved a match point in the second set tie-break and then dominated the third set to win the title.

The victory was Djokovic's third Cincinnati Open title and his 84th ATP title overall.

It also gave him a boost of confidence ahead of the US Open, which starts next week.
