After a difficult start, defending Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz overcame Tommy Paul to advance to another semifinal match, this time against Daniil Medvedev, a rematch of their previous encounter.
The world number one Jannik Sinner was defeated by Medvedev, who will be aiming for revenge after losing to him in the 2023 final four match, which Alcaraz won in straight sets on his way to winning the championship.
Alcaraz faced American Paul on Court One on Tuesday and lost a set and a break before coming back to win 5-7 6-4 6-2 6-2 in a match that lasted three hours and eleven minutes.
Alcaraz stated his remarks about Medvedev in the post-match press conference and said: “Daniil’s a really great player. It’s the same semi-final as last year so hopefully I’m going to get the same result. He just won against Sinner, the best player right now, so he’s in really good shape and I have to play my best. I have to believe in myself and try to keep going. It’s going to be difficult but I’m going to enjoy it.”
In the Wimbledon semifinal, Medvedev explains why facing Alcaraz will be challenging. He talked about it and said: “You know, whatever shot you hit, he can hit a winner from there. So you try to make his life difficult. You try to hit the shot as well as you can. Maybe he goes for it, but he cannot make it. But that’s pretty special because there are not many players like this. Carlos can do whatever from any position and that’s not easy to play against.”
