World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz are each one win away from meeting in the Wimbledon final, just over a month after their legendary duel at Roland-Garros crown in June. However, they have No. 6 Novak Djokovic and No. 5 Taylor Fritz, respectively, standing in their way in the semifinals on Friday.
Sinner and Djokovic will face each other in the semifinals again after the top-seeded Italian eliminated the 24-time Grand Slam winner in three sets at the French Open. Sinner has yet to drop a set at Wimbledon as he looks to avenge his championship loss to Alcaraz last month. Djokovic, 38, continues to age like fine wine as he scraped his way to the semifinal over the last week and a half.

Djokovic has won six of the last 10 Wimbledon men’s singles titles, while Alcaraz emerged victorious in the past two years, beating the Serbian veteran both times.
Alcaraz will face a familiar foe either way should he reach the final, but he first has to get past Fritz. The American has been on a fiery path at Wimbledon, with each match seeing a fourth set, minus a walkover against Jordan Thompson in the round of 16.
Fritz will look to play spoiler for the rest of the semifinalists and get his second straight title after winning the Lexus Westbourne Open in June.
