Fans of different players have always had it against each other. Especially with the introduction of social media platforms, these banters have increased tenfold. In a more recent interaction between such fans, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic’s fans have a go at each other as they accuse the other player of faking injuries after losses.

A particular user on Twitter(now called X) has used the platform to list out the last few losses Alcaraz has faced due to injury. This user has tried to put forth the fact that the Spaniard used the excuse of an injury to justify his loss. He also claimed that Alcaraz was definitely faking it as an excuse for his losses. “Either this is becoming a pathetic excuse much like with another certain Spaniard, or it’s not others’ fault for actually being fit, “ said the user.

However, this person has been questioned by fans of the Spaniard. “Where did you see him complaining about injuries? Not to forget Novak at the start of his career has always something wrong,” said another user, countering the initial user who seemed to be a fan of the Serb. However, a lot of users took to the platform to defend Alcaraz against the fake injury allegations. “Unless Alcaraz is physically not 100% it’s very difficult to beat him and your champ knows it very well too,” said another user, claiming that Djokovic would not be able to beat the Spaniard if he was playing at a hundred percent.

Nevertheless, both players have proved that they have achieved great success in their sport. Carlos Alcaraz has won 2 Grand Slam titles at the US Open and Wimbledon, at just 20 years old. Novak Djokovic, on the other hand, has won a record-breaking 24 Grand Slams in his astounding career which has extended over two decades and is still going strong. Both players are representatives of two consecutive generations and have proved that age is not a barrier in either case.

However, their fans have taken it one step further. Each group of fans have started accusing the other player of faking their injuries. This has led to an uproar on Twitter(now called X).

Nevertheless, it cannot be refuted that both players are at their best forms. Alcaraz is playing his best tennis yet at 20 years of age. It seems more than likely that his list of accolades will only keep increasing. Djokovic on the other hand is still winning Grand Slams at 36 years old. This proves that the Serb is still able to play at the level of the coming generation of players.
