After Nick Kyrgios predicted that Matteo Berrettini is the only one who can beat Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon and called Carlos Alcaraz the “under dog” after the Italian won the 1st set against Carlitos, the Australian silenced his Twitter voice seeing that the Spaniard pulled off a powerful comeback finishing the match 3-1.”Looks like my insight is credible.

Alcaraz is the under dog in this match,” Kyrgios tweeted.

Two hours before the above tweet, Kyrgios picked Berrettini as the only one who can stop Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon.”I think the only person now who honestly can take down or trouble Novak on the grass is Berrettini….

On the grass you need a bomb for some free points. If not you are in trouble,” wrote Kyrgios.

Alcaraz is not surprised about his level

Matteo Berrettini’s strong serves and well-calibrated forehands were not enough to stop Carlos Alcaraz, who recently admitted that he isn’t surprised by the high level of tennis he produces.”Well, I’m not surprised honestly ’cause I know my skills.

I know what I’m capable of. Is something that I work really hard to be in that position, to be what I am right now.Honestly, I’m not surprised at all,” Alcaraz said.The Spaniard also revealed the key behind his success in a recent press conference.

“The key is to believe and stay focused the whole time,” Alcaraz reflected.Carlos Alcaraz will face Holger Rune in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon. Rune beat Grigor Dimitrov in 4 sets.
