Carlos Alcaraz is on the verge of defending his Wimbledon title after securing a comeback victory against Daniil Medvedev to advance to Sunday’s final.
Medvedev aimed to overturn his semi-final loss from the previous year, but Alcaraz triumphed in a gripping match.
Alcaraz will face seven-time champion Novak Djokovic, who defeated Lorenzo Musetti in the other semi-final, in a repeat of the 2023 final.
In a nod to his home country, Alcaraz expressed his support for Spain as they prepare to face England in the Euro 2024 final later the same day.
Alcaraz stands poised to become just the ninth man in the Open era to successfully defend the Wimbledon title, joining the ranks of Djokovic, Rod Laver, John Newcombe, Bjorn Borg, John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Pete Sampras, and Roger Federer.
He also has the opportunity to achieve consecutive titles at Roland Garros and Wimbledon, a rare feat accomplished by Rafael Nadal in 2008 and 2010, and most recently by Djokovic in 2021.
