Australian Open final: Carlos Alcaraz reflects on historic feat, says 'dream come true'

It was so near yet so far for 24-time major winner Novak Djokovic after he lost to Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz in the final of the Australian Open 2026. Playing at the Rod Laver Arena in the Championship clash, Alcaraz beat Djokovic 2-6, 6-2, 6-3, 7-5 to win his maiden Australian Open and thereby complete his career Grand Slam. After the defeat, Djokovic reflected on his dream run and stated he did not anticipate reaching another major final in his career.<h2>Djokovic reflects on dream run</h2>"I must be very honest and say that I didn't think that I would be standing in a closing ceremony of a Grand Slam once again,” 38-year-old Djokovic said after defeat to Alcaraz.&nbsp;"So I think I owe you the gratitude as well for pushing me forward throughout the last couple of weeks.&nbsp;"God knows what happens tomorrow, let alone in six months or 12 months.

He claimed the set in a statement 33 minutes after a ninth unforced error from the top seed, having dominated the big moments.
