- No 1 seed beats Russian 6-3, 6-3, 6-3
- Alcaraz’s win sets up final against No 2 seed on Sunday
Since the very moment that Carlos Alcaraz began his first Wimbledon as the No 1 player in the world, he has consistently made his intentions clear. He did not merely come here to win this tournament; he wanted to win it against the best. More than anything at all, he wanted a final showdown with Novak Djokovic and he would do everything in his power to make it happen.
That burning desire was clear and undeniable as Alcaraz stood up against the third best player in the world, Daniil Medvedev, and in one of the biggest matches of his young career, the Spaniard produced an astounding level of attacking tennis to pick the Russian’s game apart. In just the fourth grass-court tournament of his career, Alcaraz will contest his first Wimbledon final after demolishing Medvedev 6-3, 6-3, 6-3.
