This Sunday, August 4, the final of the Olympic tournament will be played between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic. It’s time for revenge after the lesson received by the Serbian in the Wimbledon final.
This is the dream finale for these Paris 2024 Olympic Games. This Sunday, August 4, the outcome of the men’s Olympic tournament will be played out on the clay courts of the Roland-Garros stadium, at the Philippe-Chatrier stadium. As was the case a few weeks ago in the Wimbledon final, Carlos Alcaraz Novak Djokovic is back, this time with the Olympic gold medal in his sights.
This gold medal is the ultimate dream of Novak Djokovic. At 37, the Serb is chasing this Olympic title, the only one still missing from his list of achievements. The record holder for the number of Grand Slams had set this goal since the start of the season, but Djokovic is certainly experiencing his most complicated last few months in many years. He has not won any title since the start of the season, and has only reached the final once. He was then “outclassed” in his own words by Carlos Alcaraz in three short sets. There was also this season the knee injury at Roland-Garros, with a new alert in the quarter-finals of the Olympic tournament against Tstitsipas. However, Novak Djokovic is only two sets away from an Olympic gold medal, and we know how much the Serb is capable of surpassing himself in important moments.
Opposite, Carlos Alcaraz is having a historic season, and can achieve like Rafael Nadal in 2008 the Roland-Garros, Wimbledon and Olympic gold medal treble. Impressive in his mastery since the beginning of his tournament, the Spaniard outclassed the Canadian Félix Auger-Aliassime 6-1 6-1 in the semi-final, and absolutely wants to bring a second gold medal to Spain.
What time can I watch the Olympic tournament final between Alcaraz and Djokovic?
The final of the men’s Olympic tournament will be played in the second rotation on the Philippe-Chatrier court this Sunday, August 4, at around 2 p.m.
