Novak Djokovic relentless, ahead two sets against Jannik Sinner

After winning the first set 6-3, Novak Djokovic also won the second 6-4 to take a 2-0 lead over Jannik Sinner in the ongoing Wimbledon semifinal.

Fatal this time for the South Tyrolean tennis player was a break suffered in the third game by Nole. The Azzurro, who had clearly grown compared to the first set, tried everything to try to counterbreak the Serb but the former world number one, although struggling more in response, managed to hold on, also taking advantage of a few too many volleys by the athlete from San Candido.

Novak Djokovic is the active tennis player with the most number of Wimbledon men’s singles tournaments won: seven, one less than Switzerland’s Roger Federer, who recently retired after a career full of satisfaction.

The Serbian ace has triumphed on the London grass in the 2011, 2014, 2015, 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022 editions: in last year’s final he got the better of Nick Kyrgios, who forfeited and did not participate in the tournament in 2023, in four sets.
