The last Slam of the year is here, and everything, including schedule, predictions, and favorites, is revealed! The US Open is all set on paper, and fans only have to wait for the match results. With Rafael Nadal still away from the court, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic are the favorite picks.

American tennis legend John McEnroe has chosen his pick. He snubbed the legends and experienced players to place his confidence in a professional who won the US Open once.

John McEnroe picks the title defender as his favorite

Tennis pundit John McEnroe chose Alcaraz as his favorite as an ESPN expert and a commentator for the US Open. The young Spaniard is frequently hailed as an amalgamation of the best qualities of the Big 3. Though the ATP 1st seed snubs the comparison and desires to pave his path to glory, legends cannot ignore the young talent who has everything it takes to be a champion.

With two days to go for the major, the Superbrat declared Alcaraz the most complete player he has ever seen. According to the US Open website, McEnroe opined that the 20-year-old Spaniard is a better player than Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Djokovic in their 20s. Johnny Mac revealed that Alcaraz is just great at everything.

Carlos Alcaraz is declared the best player ever by tennis Superbrat

The former No. 1 prays for the current 1st seed’s health to watch more of him. The expert said, “He’s got this attitude that you dream of having as an athlete and as a player. Then you combine it with his athleticism. He’s one of the quickest guys—he’s got to be the top couple quickest guys I’ve ever seen on a tennis court, without a doubt. I don’t even know where to start with this guy. I just pray he stays healthy.

While the two-time Grand Slam winner is one of the best players ever, it won’t be easy for him to defend his title. Djoker lost the opportunity to equal Margaret Court at the Wimbledon Championships by losing to Alcaraz. A new rivalry looms between the champion and the legend as one aims to make his mark and the other dreams of creating history.

Whoever wins, if fans get to witness the duel between Alcaraz and Djokovic, it would be the highlight of the Slam.
