Novak Djokovic vs Carlos Alcaraz LIVE: Olympics result and final score from historic gold medal match

Novak Djokovic ended his quest for an elusive Olympics gold medal, defeating Carlos Alcaraz at Roland Garros to earn revenge for last month’s Wimbledon final defeat.

The Olympic gold was the only major title missing from Djokovic’s record-breaking career and he becomes the oldest Olympic men’s singles champion in history at the age of 37.

Djokovic was thrashed by Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final just 21 days ago , but secured a memorable gold medal for Serbia by winning 7-6 (3) 7-6 (2).

An epic 93-minute first set proved key, swinging Djokovic’s way as he struck first in the tiebreak. Alcaraz managed to hang on in the second but Djokovic won the second tiebreak of the match to claim an emotional gold for Serbia.

Alcaraz, the youngest man to reach an Olympic men’s singles final, won both the French Open and Wimbledon titles this summer and takes home silver for Spain at the age of 21.
