Dominant Djokovic to face Alcaraz in Wimbledon final

Defending champion Novak Djokovic reached a fifth successive Wimbledon men’s final where Carlos Alcaraz will try to end the Serb’s recent dominance.

Second seed Djokovic, 36, won 6-3 6-4 7-6 (7-4) against Italian eighth seed Jannik Sinner in the semi-finals.

Djokovic is one more win from an eighth Wimbledon men’s title and 24th major title – both record-equalling tallies.

Spanish top seed Alcaraz, 20, won 6-3 6-3 6-3 against Russian third seed Daniil Medvedev later on Friday.

Alcaraz outclassed Medvedev in the second semi-final, also played under the Centre Court roof, to reach his first final at the All England Club.

By contrast, Djokovic has reached his ninth Wimbledon showpiece.
