List of men's tennis players to have won the Channel Slam in the Open Era:

- Rod Laver
- Bjorn Borg (x3)
- Rafael Nadal (x2)
- Roger Federer
- Novak Djokovic
- Carlos Alcaraz

His fourth grand slam and he's still just 21. Alcaraz is simply spectacular.

Just noticed Djokovic didn't even play a qf cos the other guy pulled out so he had time off whilst alcaraz was playing every other day.

Humiliation for Djokovic today

Murray to retire after the Olympics. That's that then

Federer, Murray and Nadal as good as gone. The greatest era of tennis is over

Djokovic wins Olympic gold
Confirmed as the greatest of all time.
Love to see that

Needed a gold, to be the goat, done it, fair play to him

Nadal announced he is retiring at the end of the year.

Djokovic the only one left now, and I expect that with this news he'll find it harder to keep going too.

My favorite match between the two is the Australian Open final in 2012.

5 hours and 56 minutes of extremely grueling Tennis that left both players unable to stand after the match was done:

Nadal retires

Tennis is done for sure

[Marsbar100]

Yup, tennis is finished

Sad news but no surprise.

Hoping Novak can beat Alcaraz

Was never a fan but I can only admire what he's accomplished and the level he's still at despite being nearly 40

It will be ironic if in the future I'm sat hoping Alcaraz doesn't surpass Novak's GS tally

Big 3 forever

Battle of the sexes match lined up in Dubai, Krygios vs Sabalenka. They are making Sabalenka's side of the court 9% smaller because men move 9% faster and there will only be one serve per point, no doubt to force Krygios to serve slower.

So whats the bloody point, how is it battle of the sexes when you are trying to even everything up ? In any case I still expect Krygios to win

Serena Williams once said that if she played Andy Murray she'd lose 6-0 6-0 in ten minutes

That's the greatest female player ever, in her own opinion
