On Sunday, the second seed Spaniel will face Italy’s top seeded birthris synergy or Serbia’s No. 6 Sea Novak Djokovic, a seven-time champion of the Grass-Cort Grand Slam.
अलकराज़ के पास पापी के खिलाफ 8-4 सिर से सिर का नेतृत्व है। He has defeated Djokovic in each of the last two Wimbledon finals, but is 3–5 in his career against the 24-time Grand Slam winner.
22 -year -old Alakraj fought two set points in a fourth set tiebreak before finishing Fritz on a sunbed center court in two hours, 48 minutes.
“It was the always a difficult match when I had to play against Taylor. Even the circumstances were difficult – it was really hot today,” said Alakraj. “I am really happy with what I am doing today. I have dealt with the veins. It is not easy to play here in the semi -finals. The way I really remained calm and clearly think, I really take pride. I am happy about my level today.”
Alakraj fired 13 aces and won 88 percent (64 out of 73) on his first serve, lost service only once. Fritz had more aces (19) and more winners (44–38), but their service was broken three times.
The 27 -year -old Fritz fell short of becoming the first American man to reach Wimbledon’s final since Andy Rodic in 2009. He has lost all three of his matches against Alkaraz.
Alkaraz extended the line of his career’s best win into 24 matches and is trying to join the Swedish Great Byorn Borg, which is the only male to sweep the French Open and Wimbledon in three direct years. Borg did it from 1978-80.
“I am not thinking about winning streak or results. It is my dream, stepping on these beautiful courts and playing tennis in the world’s most beautiful tournament,” said Alakraj. “All this I try to think in every tournament and why do I try to bring happiness in the courts.”
Alakraj is trying to become a fifth man in the open era, joining Djokovic, Roger Federer, Pete Semaprass and Borg, to win at least three directly Wimbledon titles.
