He’s just the fourth man in the Open Era to win four Grand Slam titles aged 21 or under. The first three were Borg, Mats Wilander and Boris Becker, who also won four before 22.
He’s just the third man in the Open Era to win two Wimbledon titles aged 21 or under. Only Borg (1976 and 1977) and Becker (1985, 1986 and 1989) achieved that feat before Alcaraz.
He’s the first man born in the 2000s to capture 15 tour-level titles in his career. Sinner is right behind him with 14.
He’s just the second Spanish player ever, male or female, to win more than one Wimbledon title. Nadal’s the only other one, winning the grass-court major twice in 2008 and 2010.
With his 5-7, 6-2, 4-6, 7-6 (2), 6-2 victory over Frances Tiafoe in the third round, he improved to 12-1 in his career in five-setters. And the only loss was almost a win, as he fell to Matteo Berrettini in a fifth set tie-break in the third round of the 2022 Australian Open, 6-2, 7-6 (3), 4-6, 2-6, 7-6 (5).
He’s now 3-0 in finals this year. Zverev pushed him to five sets at Roland Garros, but he won the other two—Indian Wells over Medvedev, Wimbledon over Djokovic—in straights.
And finally, he’s now won 30 of his last 32 matches at majors. And 42 of his last 45, dating back to his 2022 US Open title run.
