Wimbledon 2023 | Alcaraz beats Djokovic in the final

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Have to laugh at the way they can't put the nationality of the Belarus player on the large scoreboard but commentators then refer to her regularly as the Belarussian.
Something similar to Medvedev yesterday.

Yeah, and the BBC are just posting a blank rectangle where the flag would go! Laughable, but very BBC.

I watched that. Reminded me of Zinchenko at Everton.

Come on Sigourney Sinner!

Maybe this is more hope than expectation, but I think Jannik Sinner has the game to beat Djokovic.

Both have been in great form this tournement, but has Sinner got the stamina to see it through if he gets in a good position? There have been times these last 12 months where it has been like Andy Murray in his first couple of seasons - i.e. Sinner just seems to run out of steam.

Should be a couple of greats semis today.

He could definitely give Djokovic a match, be amazed if he got more than 1 set though.

we shall see.
