OMG did Alcaraz just hurt his right hand pounding his bench after the second set tiebreaker? Djokovic seems to be getting a second bathroom break which is against the rules and Jim Courier is going nuts on the broadcast. It’s all happening in Cincy.

These two are right now at a different level. Sorry for the field.

Alcaraz saves 4 break points and holds for 6-5. Some of those kick serves to the add side should be illegal.
Djokovic is 1/13 (!!!) on break points in the 3rd set.

Right hand cramps.
Alcaraz can't hold his racket properly in the 3rd set tiebreak.
UNREAL scenes.

Overall I agree with you, but I don't think this tournament is the best example. Alcaraz was down match point in the second set to Hurkacz and down 4-1 in the second-tiebreak before rallying to win. I know it's cool and all to believe he was never going to lose when he wins a match like that, but the reality is he was one mistake or one Hurkacz big shot away from going out.
I am confident Alcaraz and Djokovic will meet in the US Open final, but Alcaraz will have to play better than he did in Cincinnati. Sinner, Hurkacz and several other players will have a chance to knock him off ie he does not raise his game, which I think he will.

I would amend it to this: when they play, they reach another level. Their games match in that way.

Taylor thinks Parks complements her well...which is true.

Alcaraz feels things perhaps too deeply for my stoic Norwegian heritage

In these cases, I believe that after such an effort your body's hormones must be totally out of whack. I don't mind him crying. He must also be in some physical pain (the good kind) after that battle.
