“I think in an interview when I was 12 or 11 years old, I said that my dream is to win Wimbledon so I’m really achieving my drams. I want to keep going but it’s obviously a greay feeling to play in this court, in this beautifulk court. I’m going to say it – I’ve said it before – for me, it’s the most beautiful tournament, the most beautiful court and obviously the most beautiful trophy.”

Alcaraz has also completed the ‘Channel Slam’ – winning the French Open and Wimbledon back-to-back. And Croft asked him how he managed to become the fifth man to unlock the achievement. “I think just fighting, believing. I don’t know. It’s a huge honour for me to be part of those players who have achieved Roland Garros and Wimbledon in the same year. Really glad to be in the same table as Novak to do it. Huge champions did it. I don’t consider myself a champion yet but I try,” he replied, before the crowd showed that they disagreed with him.

“Not as [much of a champion] as them but I try to keep going, to keep building my path, my journey. But yeah, it’s a huge honour for me.”
