Also Alcaraz loses to Djokovic after having match point.
It was on Djokovic's serve in set 2 tiebreak, but it was a match point nevertheless.
Then Djokovic had one on Alcaraz's serve in set 3, when Alcaraz served to stay in the match.
Then Djokovic had 3 on his serve when trying to serve it out.
Then he converts 5th in tiebreak.

He didn't beat him in a major match. He beat him in extended allowed
serve clock match, which is contrary to the ATP Tour rules.

No clock on 2nd serves, and he was often interrupted on 1st serve by
crowd yelling. Also umpire should allow some leeway in such a physical match.

serve clock match, which is contrary to the ATP Tour rules.
This serve clock issue is problematic. I think Andy Murray has been the most vocal to oppose it - not because his play - but how it actually makes matches longer.
Former pro, Jarkko Nieminen, also has many times said that it was the most stupidest way imaginable to fix a niche problem.

It was an incredible performance from Pipe Cleaner. It really was. Coming back from the dead like that to score the win. I just had a feeling when he lost at Wimbledon vs Alcaraz that the next time they played, Djokovic would win. I >think I posted

I'll take this loss for Alkie any day over at USO.
This may even help him, little less pressure at defending USO. On the
other hand perhaps also slightly less confidence as this was Djokovic's first real win over him.
If Alkie improves even a bit and learns to play somewhat more percentage play - he's gonna join Big Three with 20 slams I think.
Then again, what's so fun about his game is that he *doesn't* always
play percentages. A real box of chocolates...

You've come a long way from "The kid is a choker." :)
Unfortunately I missed the damn match. I've been traveling and had no access. Thought no big deal, it's just Cincinnati. Then it turns into a mini-classic. Argh. I hope they really do collide at the USO for another epic final. I'd hate to see an upsetfrom a one-match wonder like a Hurkarz or Tommy Paul.

He's also come a long way in short time from being a choker.
Well, he's got the eye, he's got the stroke, he's got the flake - he's
got that down cold. But can he flake on and flake off? I don't know.
See, I don't know whether that can be taught.

Yeah, I think Alkie's Cincy was all 3-setters... so he's still
vulnerable to riff raff.
But when he meets Djoke, it's all pleasure. I love seeing the fear in Djokovic's eyes.
