The world No 1 is through to his fourth successive grand slam title match – and his first at the All England Club – after a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 demolition on Centre Court on Friday. The 23-year-old will be desperate to avenge his painful French Open defeat against world No 2 Alcaraz after squandering three championship points in last month’s epic Roland Garros final. Sinner and Alcaraz are the undisputed new kings of men’s tennis, claiming the past six majors between them.
