I did not expect the match to be so one sided. Alcaraz just blew him out of the water

Yeah. Apart from his game where he could finish the game he played flawlessly. Not sure if djokos knee also didn't help him but even if he was 100% he wouldn't probably have won

Definitely seems like Djokovic had reduced movement; I think that was why he was coming to the net so much this match & the whole tournament really. Seems like he wanted shorter points, but Alcaraz just blasted passing shots, and Djokovic volleys weren't good today.

Alcaraz played so well though I agree, even without the knee I couldn't see Djokovic beating him today.

^without his knee Djokovic would have severely limited movement in one leg^
