Alcaraz really is built different. Unshakeable composure in the final set as well.

I think this match should have the Alcaraz doubters changing their minds a bit. Took it to 5 sets against Djokovic and winning. I like Alcaraz but I was expecting Djokovic to win because of his crazy focus in winning, champion mentality even when people are booing him.
