Probably the greatest non-slam final I've watched, just unbelievable.

Novak at 36 years old and playing at a high level against a 20 year old Carlos, that's incredible

Match was amazing

I don't think people realize how absurd it is for Novak to still be playing at such a high level at his age, and still winning major trophies against ANOTHER generation of athletes.

This was crazy. A rollercoaster of emotions. It’s so unique. A birth of a new rivalry with one player coming towards the end of his career and the other only beginning it. Never write off Novak Djokovic.

Djokovic. Will never be forgotten in sports. A underrated underappreciated legend.

First match I’ve ever gone to and I will always remember this for the rest of my life, such a historical match. Whoever got Novaks racket is a lucky person.

In late 2000, fought with Federer and Nadal. Completely dominated from 2011 to 2020 with Federer, Nadal, Murray, Delpotro, wawrinka. After 2020, fighting with Sinner, Ruud, Alcaraz, tsitsipas, Zverev, medvedev. This is more than enough to call Djokovic as the GOAT.

At this stage in his career I would be happy if djokovic just competed but to be able to still win such physicallly demanding matches is nothing short of phenomenal

What a match this was. Alcaraz vs Nole probably the best fixture in any sport right now.

I can’t stop coming back to this. Absolutely insane level of tennis!

Who's here after #24 at USO? Really wanted to see a 5 set version of this match. Still what a rivalry this has been, the best 3 set match ever !!

Djoko can inspire anyone in any field, he is the definition of never give up 🔥insane

It's unbelievable that a man like Alcaraz has come along and he's being able to push Djokovic beyond limits he has probably not touched before. Seriously, this was the greatest 3-set non-slam final in history. The level has been raised like never before.

Match of our century! Congrats to both players!

The Greatest tennis 🎾 player who ever played the game, Novak Đoković 🐐🐐🐐

The fact that Djokovic at almost 37 years old still provides the Tennis world with new rivalries and such matches is a contribution to the sport of tennis that should be regarded as his greatest achievement and something that I dont think many other athletes, regardless of sport have ever done before.

As an Alcaraz fan, how Djokovic came back after struggling so much with the heat is insane, fkn legend

For me, Novak is the best to have ever played. Skill, determination and never give up attitude is tops but how he handles the pressure points is beyond impressive. I thought he would lose this one. He looked down and out halfway through that 2nd set and he still persevered. Shame on me for doubting him. Novak, you the man!

I WAS HERE! I can’t believe I was blessed enough to witness this match IN PERSON, at the Lindner family tennis center, up close & personal, but I was there!! I am SO grateful to these 2 giants of the sport, I got to see, and got 30 feet from Nole. Thank you guys for such a match!! Incredible!

This was one of the most intense tennis match I've ever watched in my recent memories! Congrats to Novak for the win.

Can't explain in words. What a match. I'd never thought this match would go so long after 5-7,2-4 but thats novak djokovic for you.

What a legend Djokovic🏆

Novak is my sporting hero. To be playing like that at his age is amazing. Love Alcaraz as well. What a final.

Mental fortitude + tenacity + nerves of steel + heart of a champion + outstanding reflex + healthy living + clarity of mind = Novak Djokovic

Novak’s comeback in the second set was beyond impressive, even saving a match point. Alcaraz’s multiple match point saves in the third though were equally impressive, if not even more so. Both these guys bring their A game when their back is against the wall, which makes for absolute epics like this

He enjoyed this more than some of his slam victories in the last few years. He needed to win this one badly and it shows at the end. Awesome game.

Unbelievable comeback by Novak. What a match. 3rd set alone deserves a highlight of its own.

Djokovic had to summon every ounce of his legendary mental strength to win this one, against a worthy opponent who refuses to lose.

Extended highlights are desperately needed here. Match of the year! One of the best ATP matches of all time.

Novak typically doesn't even fall to the ground on Grand slam events anymore. You could tell this one means alot based on.

DJOKOVIC SEMPRE SERÁ PARA MIM,O MAIOR E MELHOR DE TODOS OS TEMPOS ❤❤❤❤

Almost 37 years old and plays a 3 setter match like this… what a beast… unbelievable. I have no idea how he is able to do that still… just GOAT stuff… Edit: Djokovic is actually 36 years old and 3 months old. Which apparently, for some people, makes a huge difference on my statement. 😂

Djokovic is a legend. If you defeat him once, he will come back much powerful. What a great sportsmen.

HOW ON EARTH he keeps playing like that after losing so many chances to close the game? If you needed another proof he's the GOAT, Djoko at 60%-70% is still enough to beat the #1 in 2023, the man mastered his mind in ways only gurus do. Truly impressive

Djokovic ️ simplesmente o Melhor de todos ️️️️. What a legend Djokovic.

Go for the 24th Slam, Novak. I love watching you play more than any other tennis legend. Incredible Fighting Spirit. Truly Inspiring. Carlos is by far the most challenging opponent against Novak.

The age gap of 16 years between the two is insane, and Novak being on this psysical level..

Dos titanes, parecia un partido de videojuego, impresionantes los dos👌congratulations Nole 👍

One Word, GOAT!

I just can't wrap my head around the level Novak is maintaining at that age. That is simply amazing!

Unbelievable match! Both players fighting to the end! So much drama and good shots, thank you Djokovic and Alcaraz for that special final!

When people say "weak era", they should watch this match. One of the best in the decade!

Sublime tennis of the highest quality. Nearly four hours for a three set match ! It was more a war than a tennis match !

❗ ARE - YOU - KIDDING - ME ??!! That was UNBELIEVABLE!!! What a match! What an incredible victory for Djokovic!

I feel a little sorry for the rest of the players on tour. These two right now are in a stratosphere of their own. Without doubt one of the greatest ATP matches. Pure theater, such incredible athletes and human beings.

Que gran deportista Djokovic, sin duda alguna ya pasó a ser el mejor tenista de la historia, luchó con Federer, Nadal y ahora Alcaraz, larga vida al rey, larga vida a Novak Djokovic.

What an epic!!. Spectacular athletes! What a show, thank you Novak and Carlos..

Hats Off Novak, you deserve massive respect. Novak has taken the sport to another level. What a player. Admire his mental strength never ever gives up. Wow.....

Novak had to face two of the other big three to win his 22 titles, and face young talent who is almost half his age to win his 23, and he can still compete with this generational talented youngster under almost 100 F degree and won it, I am out of words to say how great ND is.

Undisputable GOAT

I knew that Novak would win the US Open after winning this Match!

3:36 “it’s not the match we were hoping for, not the match it had the potential to be” just sums it up really. When even the commentators count him out he still has the belief no matter how far behind or how bad he’s feeling he still believes. What a champion

What a match 🔥 Alcaraz played with such an incredible level of intensity throughout the match pulling up some of the most complex points ever scored and still Djokovic managed to win the match, what a warrior Nole is, at 36 his fitness is intact.

Staying awake in germany to see the whole sensational Finale is one of the best decissions in this year from my side. Thank you so much for this great game. THANK YOU. Novak, you are the GOAT.

Djokovic ❤️ simplesmente o Melhor de todos 👏👏👑🏆❤️❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷

Today I'm like a zombie at work from not much sleep but it was worth it, one of the best matches I've ever watched, a fight between 2 gladiators, I'm glad that Novak won in the end but really congratulations to Carlos, an amazing player and fighter.

Cherish these moments. Tennis at it's best. For the Djoker another moment to remember that he is still in the game. He's mentally and physically a monster. ❤

I was there watching it live and I can say this was one of the greatest ever finals!! Simple stunning from start to the end.

The king of the mountain, the wizzard, the immortal, Titan himself, greatest tennis player to ever pick a racket , Novak Djokovic !

What a legendary game! I think this game will stay in my head for a long time. I send a big cheer to both players.

What an epic!!

In the vast stage of tennis, when one carefully observes the critical voices that hover around Djokovic, one cannot help but be struck by the impression that he is portrayed as the Richard III of this noble sport. However, unlike Shakespeare's somber figure, Novak emerges as a craftsman of sacrifice and discipline, tirelessly carving his path to the pinnacle of sports history. My admiration blooms when contemplating his authenticity, both on and off the court. In an environment where apparent perfection is the norm, Djokovic is a genuine human being without the need for deceptive masks. Within him, the spirit of an indomitable warrior burns with a passion that inflames the hearts of his admirers. The very essence of Djokovic is rooted in his ability to transcend an era that, at one point, seemed poised to relegate him to obscurity. However, he, like a phoenix, rose from the ashes of skepticism and forged his own destiny. Each of his victories is a testament to perseverance amidst adversity, a reminder that his greatness does not lie in superfluous elegance or the formalities of bygone times. Therefore, I am deeply grateful, beyond all reasonable measure, for having closely followed the narrative he has woven on the tapestry of tennis. With his determination and character, Djokovic has penned a story that inspires us and reminds us that greatness arises not only from skill but also from an unyielding will to build an enduring legacy.

Novak is already 36 years old. But Novak is still amazing. THE GOAT-NOVAK ❤

There is no one better in adversity than one, Novak Djokovic. Astounding feat of grit and determination. Wow. Edit: 1.5K likes. God Damn 😂 Came back to watch this again. Unbelievable from both. Still can't believe Novak pulled this out. Clutch is sn understatement. Coming from the biggest Fed fan.

I love the mentality of both players that they literally never give up a point unless it’s physically impossible…very inspiring and makes for great tennis!

OMG... probably the best 3 setter match in tennis history 🔥🔥

Eternal Nole , eternal king of Tennis 🎾👑

The match of the year and once of the best matches in tennis history. Both gave everything, blood sweat and tears. Djokovic fights an incredibly fit Alcaraz, from a set and a break down, battling a heat stroke AND saving championship point to win an almost 4 hour long match. Insane. The US Open is going to be fun.

You can't believe this guy is 36 years old. If there was ever a GOAT in male Tennis. We have him, right here.

The GOAT did it again, congratulations !

The Goat vs the Kid. What a fight!

Unreal… from both players, but, Novak.. my word! You’re the GOAT! Carlos is unbelievable, Novak pulling off this win, crazy!! I don’t know how many more we’ll get between these two, but this is Tennis at its best. 🙌🙌

The greatest of all time comes through again!! Remarkable. What a great rivalry this will be to cap off Djoković’s career. Finally a worthy rival from the new generation.

Such an unbelievable match! Experienced 36 yo to fend off a talented 20 yo rising star. Simply, unforgettable!

Just incredible match! Now, I watching this Highlights fifth time hah

That was one of the best final sets of any match, ever 🎾

I will tell my grandchildren: "There were many great tennis players. Two among them were above them all, but there was ONE that words can't describe him. No one has ever,and no one will ever play like him.Only he is constantly defeated the evil media, the hostile crowd, the world elite and the big players at the same time. The one and only, the beste ever,the GOAT Novak Djokovic".

Hat off to Novak Djokovic the greatest player at 36!! ❤

Bravo Nole .Ti si ponos Srbije❤i nepobediv u svetskom tenisu.NAJBOLJI SI I PIŠEŠ ISTORIJU TENISA.❤😂🎉

An incredible match I've ever seen in my whole life,Nole is so versatile and Carlos is so full of energy, congratulations to you both.

This was one of the best non grand slam matches of all time. Respect to both the players for going beyond their limits to give us a hell of a match. Looking forward for us open final just like this 🔥🔥🔥

It warms my heart to see the relationship between these two. It's very hard to not like Carlos. Entertaining, always smiling, great attitude, at times impossible to play winner against him. And Novak, well.. just a GOAT doing GOAT things. It's so satisfying to see him getting love from the crowd that he always deserved.

Novak really played one of his toughest matches and his winning proves he is the BEST!!

The guy just never grows old. Thought he was finished after Alcaraz took the 2 points lead and to produce such come back and win is an incredible way to do it. He still got it in him. Congratulations 🎊

Completely incredible! So happy for the greatest Djokovic! What a match

Now that the big 3 are done. The Djokovic vs Alcaraz rivalry is getting epic and giving us some amazing matches. After decades in the game and all the wear, tear, & sliding around hard courts, he's still able to play at this level is incredible against a very fresh, talented, and young player. Djokovic still able to impose his will on all the others but Alcaraz is tough to break mentally and is always there.

Wow! really incredible!!

Unbelievable match. Can’t say anything more to praise for both players. They’re real warriors!!

It's a honour to be able to watch these 2 battle it out. The amount of jaw dropping shots both these players make during a match is legendary and the respect they have for each other is always evident.

I came here sceptical about the hype, but WOW. That was incredible - not since epic Fedal matches was I so glued to the screen. These two really pushed each other and tennis to the limit. Amazing.

I never get bored watching this final highlight❤

Can't describe the happiness of witnessing Novak's greatness and Alcaraz's fighting spirit❤

I have never witnessed something like this before in my entire life. Novak’s mindset is one of a kind. Never surrender. The truly Goat of tennis has made history once again. IDEMO

Esto es lo que necesita Djokovic para ganar el us open 💗 motivation 💗

El mejor tenista de la historia, quizás también el mejor deportista de la historia. Gracias por tanto Nole, no somos dignos

These two guys are out of this world. Congrats both! 👏👏

It wasn't easy for Djokovic to come back from the Wimbledon defeat and win this, but he has made some subtle changes in his game and he is too strong in the head. Many Congratulations Djokovic the great master! Well played Alcaraz!

Clearly shows how mental strength is important once you get older.

Alcaraz is like a great force he just keeps coming at you and only few players can actually withstand it. At first I thought this guy was too much for Djokovic not even at this age but in general, as it turns out Djokovic can find solution everytime. Definetely Alcaraz is a force to be reckoned with and when he's on he is almost unostoppable
