It's New York, so anything can happen, but it seems like the only man that can stop Djokovic is Alcaraz. He has shown he can beat Djokovic the way Nadal would beat Federer - grind him out. I don't think Medvedev can do that. Alcaraz is just so hard to kill off in a point, and now he's added net play to the whole package.

Should Alcaraz make the final, it will be interesting to see what tactical changes Djokovic makes to deal with these problems, as well as how much Medvedev drains from Alcaraz's tank. It's clear he won't go without a fight.

Amazing timing for this post given the point that went on as you must have been typing. No idea how Alcaraz kept in that even though he ended up losing the point

I was referring to the stats. 18/20 at the net so far. Was 18/18 until the last service game.
 

Alcaraz having a real wobble here. Medvedev playing well in fairness though
For a minute there it looked like you might be able to watch the whole thing.

Medvedev will convert on lapses like that, which is why he's the clear #3 in the rankings. His problem with Djokovic over the years has been that Djokovic so rarely has them. He caught Djokovic carrying the pressure of a calendar Slam two years ago, and bounced him from the final in straight sets.

Even with the ship righted, it feels like Alcaraz will continue to have a bad time on his serve unless he manages to put more first serves in and get to the net.

Impressive that you keep on calling these things just as they happen. I don’t gamble but I would be up for some tips from you

I certainly did not expect Alcaraz to punt three straight from advantage on his own serve to cough up the double break. Medvedev is playing as well as I've seen him play in some time.
