75 GS appearances, 37 finals. Every time you read a Djokovic stat it looks more and more bonkers

Happy for you.
But what’s the point having CC half empty with tickets not resold?
They should’ve just had the old system of a real queue.
Also that day they screwed over C1’s matches and put the 3 main matches all on CC. Every other day they were split out nicely.
He hasn’t lost a single first, second or third round match in any grand slam when he’s gone on to win it.
Obviously it’s annoying but you don’t know that the tickets have left the ground - can always be any of;
people going to the loo, going for a break, going for food or drink, not being bothered about that particular match, leaving the grounds but coming back or leaving the grounds and not having had their ticket scanned. Only the last one I would say cast iron they could do better.
More down to the people with the tickets than the system.
But it’s happened way more this Wimbledon than any other year. What’s changed?
He may be a farm animal but that would have been beyond even him!
Yeah, I’m not sure about more than any other year but it is noticeable. I think closing the queue at like 5 (and even earlier 1st week I think) was a shit decision.
Weather, top women all going out early, retirements and 1 full side of the men’s draw being wank likely also factors in fairness. A lot of full days on C1 for example have been pretty underwhelming on paper.
How do you mean
I've never lost a GS slam match ever, big whoop.
Kyrgios just called Paolini a pocket rocket
Bridesmaid again for Paolini.
Paolini again missing on the trophy.
That's a shame
Paolini is the new Jabeur. 
Wimbledon crowd has been a bad sport, genuinely awful. Cheering double faults what the heck, glad Krejcikova held her nerves.
Why do they dislike her?
Wimbledon crowds not very fond on eastern europeans more often than not from what I have seen over the years.
Not a huge watcher of tennis but always tune into Wimbledon. I am enjoying Kyrgios on the commentary, he's great.
Sane here, I think he's even more insightful as he's played with these guys
Less than a game in and its already shaping up to be an epic final
Yep I agree. It's like in snooker, there are a few active players doing commentary and it really is insightful.
Djokovic looks broken already
Alcaraz would be kicking himself if he doesn’t break here
Same
Great start. Come on Alcaraz!
Got him!
Carlos breaks in the first game after a huge game.
bad news for Djoko if his underwhelming serving continue. he can't really afford such long service games at this age.
The good news for him is that even Carlos hasn't really served amazingly this tournament.
So far this is extremely one sided. Hopefully Alcaraz keeps it up.
Carlos has zero respect for Novak's increased charging to the net it seems. But it's doubtful that remains, I would have definitely had Novak winning the first set.
I for one would be shocked if Djokovic was to drop the first set. Has he ever managed to come back from losing the first set of a match?
Djokovic looks like he’s coming of a night out. The heck was that 2nd serve
Novak just has nothing to trouble him atm. double break already, Alcaraz never under any kind of pressure.
Nightmare start for Djokovic. Alcaraz has started very well, a reverse of how the final started last year.
Last year I felt the first set was more important for Alcaraz and this year, I feel the first set is more important for Djokovic.
Djokovic doesn't need to win this set but ideally he needs to end this set relatively strongly, so the momentum doesn't feel so much.

Looks like Novaxx won't be escaping from Alcaraz today
Djokovic has finally arrived to the match.
Novak has been shocking but you just can't ever write him off.
