“Novak Djokovic defeats Carlos Alcaraz for first Olympic gold medal” (NBC):
He had tried five times to win the gold, failing each time. … The two sets played had to go into a tiebreaker, which was neck and neck the entire way. During the first set, there were 13 unsuccessful break points. The match lasted nearly three hours, an eternity for earning the best two sets out of three.
A three-set match? That’s typically for tennis players who identify as “women”. Thus, it seems fair to say that Djokovic, who has repeatedly denied Science by refusing to be injected with a Scientifically-proven vaccine against COVID-19, won gold due to switching gender IDs. (It would have been easier if Spanish prodigy Carlos Alcaraz hadn’t also changed gender IDs.)

Most men’s tennis tournaments play 3 sets.
5 sets used to be more common, but these days I think only the 4 “Grand Slam” tournaments, like Wimbledon, still play 5. And these tournaments have made changes to avoid marathon matches by playing tiebreakers instead of using “must win by two games” rules.
