World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will bring their fierce rivalry to Wimbledon in 2024, hoping to extend the seven-time winner Novak Djokovic’s trophy drought.
If Djokovic has trouble making a full recovery from his injuries, all eyes will be on Sinner and Alcaraz to start a new chapter at Wimbledon.
Alcaraz expressed his remarks about it recently and said: “I’m just focusing on myself. For me, I’m going to play the same level or I’m going to feel the same pressure being with the Big Three in the tournament or having none of those three.”
Sinner said after winning in Halle: “I’m looking forward to it. Last year I made the (Wimbledon) semifinals, I played some good tennis. So let’s see what’s coming this year. I’m more confident, for sure.”
Recently, Alcaraz and Sinner were spotted working out together and hitting the court for practice. Both young players were hitting good volleys to prepare them for Wimbledon.
