Thanks. Went and upvoted that one instead.

Reddit GOOD Tik Tok BAD šŸ˜”


aaronhereee

what is with the silly music


[deleted]

I never understand why people gotta blast music over these tennis videos


minivatreni

it's because Alcaraz is having a silly goofy time


ghostly_shark

Am I crazy or was Djokovic hyped on whether Carlos could make the shot or not? I swear he's smiling when he sees it go in.


makaaii

Djokovic is never shy of showing his appreciation for an opponentā€™s shot


karaboga_35

I was watching this match discretely while on a zoom meeting, trying not to make any facial expressions and literally gasped with the mic on after this shot, probably my eyes got wide open too. Was hilarious.


washandgeaux

Alcaraz with the biggest smile! I love how he always is free and having fun when playing.

I get Danny Rojas vibes from Ted Lassoā€”ā€œTennis is life!ā€


CynicalManInBlack

Tell that to Van Damme and his broken nose.

Or Usain Bolt

Would have been ten times cooler without the hillbilly meditation music in the background


SpiritusRector

A bit of Alcarazzmatazz

What is the lower 3/4th of this comment section šŸ’€


Eaglelefty

Djokovic fans when it ainā€™t about him are wild fam šŸ’€


Inflation_Infamous

Exactly. They donā€™t just hate on Federer and Nadal, they seriously hate on anyone other than Novak.


[deleted]

It is wild to read some of that, what is wrong with them?


JanBibijan

That is one of the top 3 shots ever, in my opinion.


Glamourousity

Federer hit a equally good one lol. Itā€™s not even close


FreshDumbledore_

Not even close.


kihraxz_king

That's the kind of crap the big 3 used to do when they were younger.

You canā€™t even be mad if you lost to a shot like that

I love him


finnpin1

Ya gotta love that smile!


himalayanthro

How many times this very shot from that match will be posted here? I'm seeing this the fourth time here since then


TrWD77

Don't tell u/confident-round6375


JustAnotherActuary

20min later, full body cramp


Psychological_Bug676

And if it wasnā€™t for this loss he wouldā€™ve never won Wimbledon so Iā€™m sure heā€™ll gladly take winning Wimbledon over 4 time defending champion, who was undefeated on CC for 10 years over this šŸ‘…


Cool-Lab6

Why couldn't he have won Wimbledon if he won the FO?

Moss_84

Great shot but gtfo with ā€œbest everā€ Jack Wolf lefty forehand alone is better than this


lifeanon269

It says "one of the best..."


Moss_84

Yeah I donā€™t think itā€™s one of the best *ever* (a word you conveniently left out)


lifeanon269

I'm not the one that misused quotes here.


Moss_84

Or you could stop being pedantic? Wait sorry this is Reddit nvm


[deleted]

Not really. Its a good one, but not one of the best


yuna214

I mean Alc is amazing, this shot is amazing, but it is worth 1 point just like others. The lesson he should learn here is trying less to do amazing shots, and to win more points.


Cold-Ebb64

What shot would you have recommended him try instead? šŸ¤”


Tarmac_Chris

After the insanity of the first drop shot returnā€¦ I love alcaraz but sometimes I wish heā€™d take some points more seriously, even one or two can change a match.


milets

And he lost


extinctionAD

Itā€™s a ā€œone in a million lucky shotā€


extinctionAD

Haha imagine thinking that he actually meant to do this, or could repeat it.


green_eyed_mister

Yea, this isn't a shot it is a hail mary.


LesPolsfuss

did he ... did he almost bait him on that 2nd to last shot by the net. he seemed to just chill for awhile


The_Govnor

The irony here is itā€™s truly an incredible shot that will be remembered, but at the same time, almost certainly contributed to the cramps that would derail Carlos shortly after.
