The end to a storied career is nigh for Novak Djokovic, who fell in straight sets (3–6, 3–6, 4–6) to world No. 1 Jannik Sinner in the men's semifinal at Wimbledon on Friday afternoon.
This year marks the first men's Wimbledon final to not feature Djokovic since 2017, a testament to the Serbian's dominance over the last several years. However, the 38-year-old looked hampered by an injury he may have suffered in Wednesday's quarterfinal, and despite going up 3–0 in the third set, he proved no match for Sinner, who easily cruised to a win and booked his spot in the final against Carlos Alcaraz.
