Alcaraz crushes Djokovic to retain Wimbledon title

Carlos Alcaraz has retained his men's singles title at Wimbledon after defeating world number 1 Novak Djokovic in the final.

Despite squandering three championship points when trying to serve out a rapid victory, Alcaraz found focus again and held his arms aloft after battling through the third-set tie-break for a 6-2 6-2 7-6 (7-4) win.

Gracious in defeat, Djokovic shared a smile and warm embrace with Alcaraz at the net after his comprehensive loss.

For a second straight year, Djokovic was attempting to equal Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon men's titles.

The 24-time major winner was also trying to move ahead of Margaret Court to take sole ownership of the all-time record for the most Grand Slam singles titles.
