BarcelonaCarlos Alcaraz vs. Jannick Sinner. This will be the Wimbledon final, after the two best tennis players in the world advanced to their semifinal matches. Alcaraz defeated Taylor Fritz, the ATP world number 5, in two hours and 48 minutes (6-4, 5-7, 6-3, 7-6), while Sinner overcame a struggling Novak Djokovic (6-3, 6-3, 6-4).

The Murcian tennis player will be playing in the All England Club final for the third consecutive time and, at just 22 years old, could become the Spaniard with the most titles on London's grass on Sunday (Rafa Nadal has two). Furthermore, Alcaraz knows what it's like to beat Jannik Sinner, whom he beat just over a month ago at Roland Garros (4-6, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 7-6) and before that at the Rome Masters 1000 (7-6, 6-1).

It's now 24 consecutive victories for the Murcia native, a tennis player who, after being unexpectedly defeated in the final of the Godó against the Dane Holger Rune (6-7, 2-6), has won every match. Alcaraz has been overcoming, with greater or lesser ease, all the obstacles to be back in the decisive match at Wimbledon. His first opponent was Fabio Fognini, the only duel in which he needed five sets (7-5, 6-7, 7-5, 2-6, 6-1). He then saw off Briton Oliver Tarvet (6-1, 6-4, 6-4) and German JL Struff (6-1, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4) in the early rounds. In the round of 16, he overcame Russian Andrey Rublev (6-7, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4), before easily defeating Briton Cameron Norrie (6-2, 6-3, 6-3) in the quarter-finals.

Sinner, who has reached the Wimbledon final for the first time, took advantage of Novak Djokovic's physical weakness, who has shown that he has not been at his best in his last appearance at the All England Club. The Serb only had a glimmer of hope in the third set, when he went 0-3 up, but a relentless Sinner gave him the victory to win the match in three sets and reach the final.
