## Resource

The Dud Slam is no more! Catherine, David and Matt react to an extraordinary day as Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic both reached the final in impossibly dramatic fashion.  Part one - We start with Djokovic’s late night comeback victory over Jannik Sinner. How did he do it? What was new from him and what was vintage? And what more could Sinner have done on his many unconverted break points?  Part two (26:55) - Moving on to Carlos Alcaraz’s 5h27m win over Alexander Zverev, how did Alcaraz’s mid match cramps change everything and how smartly did he manage them? What part did the crowd play in Alcaraz’s victory? And how does Zverev reflect on this defeat?  Part three (55:51) - Sensation of the Day, doubles and wheelchair results, and predictions for Aryna Sabalenka vs Elena Rybakina in the women’s final.
