Five of the best moments from Wimbledon this year

  1. Linda Noskova secured her first Grand Slam title by defeating Karolina Muchova in the women's final, recovering from squandering five championship points in a dramatic second set.
  2. British wild card Arthur Fery made a memorable run to the semi-finals, notably overcoming Zizou Bergs in a five-set thriller in the third round despite suffering nosebleeds and trailing significantly.
  3. Novak Djokovic endured a gruelling five-hour 15-minute quarter-final against Felix Auger-Aliassime, winning in five sets after an injury scare and a dispute over the roof, which ultimately impacted his semi-final performance.
  4. Karolina Muchova advanced to the women's final after a thrilling semi-final against Coco Gauff, which was decided by a tense final tie-break where both players had match points.
  5. Serena Williams made a wildcard return at 44 years old, but despite an early lead in the deciding set, she was defeated by Maya Joint in the first round, later revealing a knee injury sustained during the match.
