Who said what after Carlos Alcaraz defeated Novak Djokovic 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 (7/4) to win a second successive Wimbledon title on Sunday:

 "Honestly, it is a dream for me to win this trophy. I did an interview when I was 11 or 12 and I said my dream is to win Wimbledon."

-- Alcaraz after winning a second Wimbledon and fourth Grand Slam title

 "For me this is the most beautiful tournament, the most beautiful court, and the most beautiful trophy.

 Alcaraz pays tribute to Wimbledon

 "Djokovic is an unbelievable fighter, I knew he was going to have his chances. It was difficult but I tried to stay calm going into the tie-break and tried to play my best tennis. I was glad at the end I could find the solutions."

-- Alcaraz hails seven-time champion Djokovic

 "It obviously was not the result I wanted but of course in the first couple of sets, the level of tennis wasn't up to par from my side. But credit to Carlos for playing elite tennis, especially from the back of the court, he had it all today."

 Djokovic on his performance

"It wasn't meant to be, I tried to extend the match, but he was an absolute deserved winner today so congratulations for him."
