On the court, right after the victory, Novak Djokovic said he would have retired if he had lost on the second serve. During the press conference, Carlos Alcaraz shared his perspective, which was very different from the Serbian's: "When I won the first set, I tried not to let him breathe and to go for it, to see if he would lower his level or give me more tranquility. There have been several moments where I did not take advantage of my opportunities properly. Small moments in the match that make the difference. I needed to attack more. Someone thinking about retirement would not have played the way he did afterward. Everyone saw he was struggling to move, and in the third and fourth set, I didn't see any of that. I believe that even if he had lost the second set, I would have had to work hard to beat him. I won't go into details, but I don't think he would have retired."
