Djokovic is 37, which makes him the oldest man to play in a Summer Games final. Alcaraz is 21, which makes him the youngest. Djokovic defeated Lorenzo Musetti of Italy 6-4, 6-2 to get to his first Olympic final after entering the day 0-3 in semifinals at Summer Games. Alcaraz was even more dominant during his 6-1, 6-1 victory over Felix Auger-Aliassime of Canada. The final will be a rematch of the past two Wimbledon championships, both won by Alcaraz, including three weeks ago. He has four Grand Slam titles. Djokovic has 24. “That’s going to be, obviously, the biggest challenge that I can have at the moment,” Djokovic said about taking on Alcaraz, who also won the French Open in June at Roland Garros, the same clay-court facility being used for these Olympics.
