Carlos Alcaraz is only 21 years old.

Novak Djokovic is 37 and one of the most accomplished tennis players in history.

Yet somehow, the two already have a fierce rivalry and will meet for the second-straight year in the Wimbledon final. Alcaraz got the better of Djokovic last year, defeating him in five sets (1-6, 7-6, 6-1, 3-6, 6-4).

Oddsmakers like the chance of history repeating itself as Alcaraz is -160 to win a second-straight title while Djokovic is +130 to win his eighth. Djokovic would move into a tie with Roger Federer for most Men’s Wimbledon championships if he's able to pull off the upset.

Tying that record isn’t the only history on the line for Djokovic. A victory would make the Serbian superstar the first player in tennis history to win 25 Grand Slams, which would arguably be the greatest feat in the history of the sport. He’s won 10 Australian Opens, four US Opens and three French Opens in addition to his seven Wimbledon titles.

Meanwhile, a second-straight Wimbledon title would be Alcaraz’s fourth Grand Slam championship. He also won the US Open in 2022 and the French Open in 2024. All he needs to do is win the Australian Open to become the ninth player to win all four Grand Slams, joining Fred Perry, Don Budge, Rod Laver, Roy Emerson, Andre Agassi, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic.
