Novak Djokovic vs Daniil Medvedev Live Score US Open 2023 Final: Post-match ceremony!

It is time for the post-match presentation now! Djokovic is teary-eyed!

The chair umpire is felicitated first then the USTA chairman, who also gives a small speech.

First Medvedev's turn!

"First of all, Novak what are you still doing here. Jokes apart, third final, maybe not the last. You are probably going to be here for many more. I don't know when you are going to slow down. 24, I mean, congrats to your team. 2 years ago, when I won, I was like what a great anniversary gift for my wife. It is funny because dates usually change. But today is Sunday, it didn't happen", he said.

"I want to thank my team, first of all for being there for many years. Hopefully guys, we can do one more this step or more than one more time. Everybody, my family and my supporters, it is sometimes tough and sometimes happy. Thanks a lot guys", he further added.

Speaking on Djokovic, he said, "I don't know. From one side, I can say that I find this amazing. At the same time, if he and Rafa didn't exist, I played five finals against them, and only won once. I said this before, we first met when I was 500 in the world. He was super kind and treated me like a normal person. He still does, nothing has changed. I think that is great about a person."

He receives the runners-up trophy.

Now Djokovic's turn, the champion!

On matching Court's 24 Grand Slam titles, he said, "I don't know where to start, it means the world to me. I am really living my childhood dream, to compete in the highest level in the sport, which has given my family so much. We had a lot of wars in my countries during the 90s and my parents sacrificed a lot. They let me play a very expensive sport. I fell in love with it, nobody in my family has played it before. Quite a choice and incredible resilience, belief from my parents. This trophy is for my kids and my team."

"To make history is truly remarkable and special in every possible meaning. I had a childhood dream when I was 7 or 8. I wanted to become the best player in the world and win the Wimbledon trophy. That was the only thing that I wanted. Last couple of years, I felt I had a shot at history, why not grab it if presented," he further added.

Speaking on Medvedev, he said, "I want to congratulate Medvedev. Happy anniversary to your partner. It comes from a good place. If I knew it was today, maybe the result would have been different. Jokes aside, he has been incredibly kind to me and my team. It is nice to see you evolution and there is lot more for you to achieve, no doubt. He has the most authentic personality, never change with your celebrations and comments."

In memory of late Kobe Bryant, he said, "I thought of wearing the Black Mamba t-shirt if I get a chance to win this tournament, 7 days ago. I didn't say this to anyone. Kobe was a close friend, we chatted a lot about winners' mentality, when I was struggling with injuries and trying to make a comeback. He was one of those I relied on, and he was always there. What happened few years ago and his daughter passing, that hurt me. I did it to acknowledge him."
