At the 2026 Australian Open, Novak Djokovic humorously claimed that Carlos Alcaraz's revised serve motion closely resembles his own, joking about a 'copyright' claim and requesting a share of Alcaraz's prize money and tributes for every ace. Alcaraz acknowledged the similarity but denied intentional copying, explaining his serve changes aim to improve rhythm and consistency. Djokovic marked his 100th Australian Open win, while both players continue their campaigns at the tournament.
