Novak Djokovic had to dig deep to keep his Wimbledon title dreams alive. On Tuesday, he faced a tough opponent in Andrey Rublev, the seventh seed, in the quarter-finals. Djokovic lost the first set, but was determined to not let go of the match and bounce back.
He managed to win four sets in a row, a feat that brought him one step closer to equalling Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon titles. He will now face eighth seed Jannik Sinner in the semi-finals.
It looked like Rublev would cause an upset when he took the first set 6-4. His powerful serve helped him level the match at 4-4 and he stunned Djokovic with a huge break to take a 5-4 lead. Djokovic was determined to turn the match around and he held to love in his following service game.
The Serbian then took the second set 6-1 and managed to break his opponent in the third set, going on to win it 6-4. The fourth set was a cruise for Djokovic as he sealed a 6-3 victory.
Meanwhile, the world No.1 Carlos Alcaraz has to overcome Holger Rune in his quarter-final match on Wednesday. If he succeeds, he could be set for a showdown with Djokovic in the Wimbledon final.
