Jannik Sinner

Novak Djokovic's continued quest for a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title has once again come to an end at the hands of Jannik Sinner.

The top-ranked Italian defeated Djokovic 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 to reach the Wimbledon Final and join Rafael Nadal (2008-09) as the only player to defeat the Serbian five consecutive times.

After both players quickly held their opening service games, Sinner used his signature baseline aggression and relentless consistency to break the seven-time Wimbledon champ and take a 2-1 lead.

The 23-year-old continued to hold serve with ease before breaking Djokovic once more to capture the first set in under 33 minutes.

Sinner won all 12 of his points on first serve, while Djokovic won 15 of 20.

The real difference-maker was Sinner's constant ability to generate power on second-serve returns and immediately put Djokovic on the defensive end.

The three-time major champion won 10 of 13 second-serve return points—the final one of which grabbed him the first set.

Then, in the second set, Djokovic was broken in his first service game after spraying a forehand long.

Along with his dominant first serve, Sinner's aggressive-yet-consistent baseline play proved to be too much for Djokovic, who found himself down two sets in just 70 minutes.

But, as we've learned throughout the years, Djokovic is never out of it.

The 38-year-old began playing offense in the third set, breaking Sinner for the first time, before nearly breaking again.

With a 3-1 lead, Djokovic was broken, however, allowing Sinner back into the set.

After quickly holding, the 23-year-old broke once more to take a 4-3 lead after Djokovic made consecutive unforced errors.

Sinner held his next two service games to claim his sixth consecutive victory against the 24-time Grand Slam champion.

On Sunday, he'll look to change the narrative in the Wimbledon final against Carlos Alcaraz, who stunned him in last month's French Open final.

Carlos Alcaraz

Carlos Alcaraz defeated Taylor Fritz, 6-4, 5-7, 6-4, 7-6(6), to reach the Wimbledon final for the third consecutive year.

The two-time defending champion came out hot, breaking Fritz to begin the match before using his increasingly dominant serve—which averaged 1 MPH more than Fritz on first serve—and baseline aggression to capture the opening set in 35 minutes.

It was a serving masterclass for the Spaniard, who won all 15 of his points on first serve while hitting 12 winners to just three unforced errors.

In the second set, Fritz played a much stronger return game, however.

The 27-year-old created his first breakpoint opportunity before Alcaraz hit a 136-MPH body serve and won consecutive points to narrowly escape.

But Fritz would not let that deter him and stunningly broke the Spaniard's serve without dropping a single point, ending Alcaraz's remarkable streak of 43 consecutive service games won to tie the match at one set all.

However, the No. 2 seed remained unfazed.

After Fritz held his first service game, Alcaraz won 12 straight points to take a 3-1 lead.

From there, the Spaniard continued to dominate on his first serve before breaking Fritz once more to capture the set.

Alcaraz won 16 of 17 points on serve in the third set, while Fritz won just 14 of 24 and struggled to stay consistent, committing as many errors (8) as he did in the first two sets combined.

In the fourth set, serving dictated play, eventually forcing a tiebreaker.

Alcaraz took a mini-break lead, but Fritz stormed back and created three set point opportunities at 6-4.

But Alcaraz would not let the pressure get to him, winning four consecutive points to avoid a fifth set.

On Sunday, the 22-year-old will take Centre Court looking to become the fifth player in the Open Era to three-peat at the All England Club.
