Djokovic is now at the brink of age that if he were to win this very US open it would have been his last but he was unfortunate to be stripped up by Alcaraz at this time. He doesn't stand the chance of winning it anymore as the chances are that his age would grant him the needed energy to stand out as before. The disappointment he expressed as a result of the loss by hitting the rack post of the net which has led to a fine of 6'117 pounds on him is enough to show how unsure he felt about the future for him with age by his side.

Lol this is greatly exagerated. I didn’t expect that Djokovic would lose the final against Wimbledom but it doesn’t mean his career is over. While I am no fan of Djokovic, I think he still got chances to win 2 or 3 more grand slams. Alcaraz is the new kid on the block but it doesn’t mean that Djokovic stands no chance anymore.

A shocking defeat that was almost the same as when he lost in the US Open final to Medvedev, it was the last Grand Slam tournament of the year and if he succeeded, he would become the second player after Steffi Graff to win 4 Grand Slams in one season, even in the final he is the top seed so there is no doubt that he could lose a Grand Slam final by any player but so far other than the big four and Wawrinka only two players have been able to beat him in a Grand Slam final, I agree his loss at Wimbledon is not the end In his career he still has the possibility of winning another Grand Slam, the Australian Open has always been his favorite venue beside Wimbledon and he has never lost in the final of that tournament.

US Open Alcaraz is the defending champion but apart from Nadal and Djokovic the currently active players hardly anyone has won consecutive Grand Slams, Wawrinka, Thiem and Medvedev have failed to do so, Alcaraz will try to do so but injuries can haunt him because every year it is always there was a time when he was hit by injuries and could not compete
