The Serbian will play against Carlos Alcaraz in a replay from last year’s final as the Spaniard beat him, and now Nole will seek revenge.

Novak won the 1^st set after converting 2 breaks while allowing Musetti only one as the 2^nd set was the most competitive one in the match as each player had 1 break and the set was decided after a tiebreak. Nole dominated in the tiebreak and won it 7-2 points to get 2-0 lead. In the 3^rd set, Djokovic needed only 1 break to win the set and the match as the Serbian, however, needed 4 match balls to close the set and reach the final at Wimbledon.
