Jannik Sinner matches Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer feat after defeating Novak Djokovic to reach the Wimbledon final

Jannik Sinner stormed into the Wimbledon final after a comprehensive victory over Novak Djokovic.

The ATP’s world number one entered this match on a four-match streak against the 24-time Grand Slam champion.

The Italian had lost his two previous meetings with Djokovic at Wimbledon, and the same foe stood between him and a place in Sunday’s championship match.

But Jannik Sinner was in ruthless mode as he dispatched the seven-time Wimbledon champion 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 to earn the right to compete for his first Wimbledon title on Sunday.

Jannik Sinner becomes the fourth man to beat Novak Djokovic on all three surfaces

Sinner made a quick start to his Wimbledon semi-final against Novak Djokovic by breaking him in his opening service game.

He continued that momentum and won the first set, and claimed the second in similar fashion as Djokovic struggled to stay with him.

The Serbian seemed hampered by injury as he took a medical timeout before the third set commenced. Djokovic then looked rejuvenated and opened up a 3-0 lead in set three.

But his advantage was short-lived, as Sinner won six of the next seven games to seal victory in one hour and 55 minutes.

Sinner has now become just the fourth man after Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray to beat Djokovic on all surfaces.
