The long-awaited duel will indeed take place. Like last season, the Wimbledon final pits the recent Roland-Garros winner, Carlos Alcaraz, against world number 2, Novak Djokovic, on Sunday, July 14. A year ago, it was the Spaniard who won in five sets and 4 hours and 42 minutes of play. Having just returned from a meniscus injury, the Serb has succeeded in his bet and can now dream of an 8th crown on the London grass.
Facing him, Carlos Alcaraz gradually gained strength throughout the tournament. Having barely beaten Frances Tiafoe in the third round (5-7, 6-2, 4-6, 7-6[2]6-2), the Spaniard then beat Ugo Humbert and Tommy Paul before beating Daniil Medvedev quite easily.
