Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz are back in a major final again. A few weeks on from Wimbledon, the world No. 2 and No. 3 meet in the 2024 Olympics men’s singles final to decide who will win the gold medal in Paris on Sunday, August 4. The last time they met at Roland-Garros, Alcaraz’s nerves got the better of him and Djokovic rolled to a victory. Since then, Alcaraz has beaten him twice at Wimbledon. At their most recent meeting, Alcaraz was simply too good for Djokovic. Can the 37-year-old Serb put up a better fight as he covets the one thing he has yet to win—an Olympic gold medal—in his illustrious career? Or will the youngest-ever Olympic men’s singles finalist establish his supremacy and be the second man to win the French Open, Wimbledon and Olympics in the same year since his idol Rafael Nadal?

All eyes will be on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Sunday. But what time is Djokovic vs Alcaraz? And where can you watch it on TV or online? Here are the estimated start times, the TV channels, and live stream options for the Olympics 2024 men’s singles final on Sunday, August 4 around the world.
