Carlos Alcaraz Reaches Third Consecutive Wimbledon Final

Carlos Alcaraz has advanced to his third consecutive Wimbledon final after a hard-fought four-set victory over American fifth seed Taylor Fritz. The 22-year-old defending champion won 6-4, 5-7, 6-3, 7-6(8-6) in nearly three hours on Centre Court, extending his career-best winning streak to 24 matches and marking his 20th consecutive Wimbledon win. Alcaraz, a five-time Grand Slam champion, aims to become only the fifth man in the Open Era to win three consecutive Wimbledon titles and to join Bjorn Borg as the second man to complete back-to-back Channel Slams by winning both the French Open and Wimbledon. He will face either Novak Djokovic or world number one Jannik Sinner in the final, holding an 8-4 head-to-head lead over Sinner but trailing Djokovic 3-5. Alcaraz remains focused on the joy of playing tennis rather than statistics, underscoring his passion and resilience on the Tour. This upcoming final promises an exciting match-up between some of the sport's top players.
