Our projection has Carlos Alcaraz vs Novak Djokovic as the headline match of the Final. It comes from a projected bracket built on our reference player pool, not from the official draw, so the confirmed pairing can differ. It is the last match of the event, and the winner takes the title.

Carlos Alcaraz

56% to win · 12-point gap

Alcaraz 56%44% Djokovic

Carlos Alcaraz is the modest pick because of a clear edge in recent form. Novak Djokovic keeps a 44% chance, mostly through return and match-day variance.

Projected pairing: this comes from our reference player pool, so treat it as the shape of the round, not a confirmed order of play. The official draw and any withdrawals decide the real match.

Fast, low-bouncing grass conditions reward big servers and short points, which narrows the gap between the two players' styles.

  • Live pricing
