    You really don’t want to be double faulting at 0-30 on your own serve, when serving to stay in the set

    Still should make it less of a precession, more of a spectacle

    For greater context, there hasn’t been an American male grand slam winner in 22 years since Andy Roddick won the US open

    The last American to reach a Men’s singles Wimbledon final was again Roddick in 2009

    When you consider the domination of players like Sampras, Agassi, McEnroe, Connors etc it’s a long time

    Alcaraz gets the double break and takes the third set 6-3 and leads 2 sets to 1

    Long way back for the American

    Wow! Really?
    That’s an incredible stat. When I was young the Americans were quite dominant with some of the people you mention.

    Fritz was 4-1 down and then won 5 points in a row to get a set point.
    Alcaraz saves it. 6-5. Still set point but on Alcaraz's serve
