Carlos Alcaraz provided his thoughts at the trophy presentation: “I want to talk about Novak [Djokovic]. What you are doing is really inspiring. Not only for the tennis players but all athletes the world over, and me as well. I have just been putting in the hard work every day with your team. For me, I enjoy watching you so much. It has been an honour to share the court with you. Thank you very much for what you are doing as it is very inspiring to me.”

Novak Djokovic shared some thoughts after receiving his trophy: “First and foremost, congratulations to Carlos. It was an amazing tournament and couple of weeks for you and your team. What you are doing is historic, legendary. I wish you the best of luck for the rest of your career. I mean you are so young, you have so much time. You are so young like myself, so I am sure we will see each other a lot more in the next 10 years (laughs). I have to thank my team for enduring me and for giving me support. It hasn’t been smooth sailing, but you guys are my rock. You have seen the worst and the best of me. This success is your success. I then want to speak to the legendary Rafa who is in the stands. Just a few words. Obviously, it feels very weird to see you there and not here. I just want to say it has been an honour to share the court with you, and thank you for being present. Too many Spanish legends, I felt like it was two against one, it wasn’t fair but okay.”
