Novak Djokovic’s defeat at the hands of top seed Jannik Sinner in Friday’s semifinal clash marked a rare occasion when the seven-time champion has been turned over in straight sets at Wimbledon.
Djokovic has only been defeated in straight sets four times at Wimbledon. The latest of these came in the 2024 final against Carlos Alcaraz. Had Djokovic made it past the Italian on Friday, he would have had the opportunity to avenge this defeat.
