Jannik Sinner, the defending Wimbledon champion, beats Novak Djokovic in straight sets to reach the final, setting up a match against Alexander Zverev. Multiple outlets report that Sinner wins 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 on Friday, using aggressive baseline play and big serving to control key moments throughout the match. Djokovic, a seven-time Wimbledon champion, remains unable to convert opportunities and misses another chance to add to his record tally of 24 Grand Slam titles. The win also ends Sinner’s previous concern about his physical condition following a difficult French Open, with sources describing his performance as dominant. Djokovic had won their most recent meeting at the Australian Open semifinals, but Sinner responds with a decisive victory at Wimbledon. In the other semifinal, Zverev defeats British wild card Arthur Fery on Centre Court. Sources say Zverev wins 7-6 (0), 6-2, 6-4, following his recent first Grand Slam title at Roland Garros, and will contest his second major final in succession.

1 month agoIf there were any lingering questions over Jannik Sinner's physical status after his meltdown at the French Open, they should be answered now. Sinner blasted his way past seven-time champion Novak Djokovic 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 on Friday to reach the Wimbledon final - showing off the kind of dominance he displayed before that second-round defeat in Paris. It was a measure of revenge for Sinner after Djokovic won their last meeting in five sets in this year's Australian Open semifinals. For the 39-year-old Djokovic, it marked another chance missed at adding to his record total of 24 Grand Slam titles. Aiming to defend his title at the grass-court Grand Slam, the top-ranked Sinner will face second-seeded Alexander Zverev in Sunday's final.
