Like last year, one of the two Wimbledon semi-finals will pit Carlos Alcaraz against Daniil Medvedev. In the second quarter-final on Tuesday, the Spaniard defeated Tommy Paul after a thrilling battle lasting over 3 hours and 4 sets (5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2).

The American got off to the best possible start on Court n°1, winning a monumental first set of 1 hour and 12 minutes (7-5). He also broke early in the 2nd set to lead 2-0. It was from this point on that Alcaraz really raised his game and gradually turned the tables. Unstoppable, he went on to win 18 of the next 24 games.

The Spaniard is still in contention to retain his title on the grass of the All England Club. He is also in the running to complete the Roland Garros - Wimbledon double, which was last achieved by Novak Djokovic in 2021.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
