champion Carlos Alcaraz celebrates with runner-up Novak Djokovic

At 22 years and 272 days old, Alcaraz is the youngest man in history to complete the career Grand Slam of all four major titles, breaking a record set by American Don Budge in 1938.

The Spaniard simply had too much for Novak Djokovic, with the 38-year-old starting superbly but falling to a 2-6 6-2 6-3 7-5 defeat that keeps him waiting for an elusive 25th slam title.

“I'm trying” said Alcaraz with a smile when asked if he realised what he had achieved.

“What I've learned this year is about appreciating and enjoying every single second of the moment you're living.

“So right now I'm just trying to have a time to realise what I've been doing. I’m doing history with some trophies, some tournaments, some achievements that I’ve been getting.

“For me, it's an honour to put my name on the history books.”
