In a highly anticipated showdown, Novak Djokovic and defending champion Carlos Alcaraz are gearing up to face each other once again in the men's singles final at Wimbledon. The match will be a rematch of last year's dramatic summit clash, where Alcaraz stunned Djokovic in a thrilling five-set battle, becoming the fourth active player to lift the Wimbledon title.

Alcaraz's road to the final was paved with victories, including a recent win against Daniil Medvedev in a repeat of last year's semifinal. This achievement makes Alcaraz the fourth man in Open Era to reach multiple Wimbledon finals at the age of 21 or under, following in the footsteps of tennis greats like Rafael Nadal. If Alcaraz manages to claim the title on Sunday, he will join an elite club of players who have achieved the Roland Garros-Wimbledon double, including legends such as Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, Nadal, Federer, and Djokovic.

Meanwhile, Djokovic will be seeking revenge as he aims to match Roger Federer's record for the most Wimbledon titles in the Open Era, a remarkable feat of eight championships. The 37-year-old Serbian will also have the opportunity to become the oldest champion at the All England Club. Djokovic holds a slight lead in the head-to-head rivalry against Alcaraz with a 3-2 record, having emerged victorious in their last two meetings last year.

Djokovic is renowned for his ability to bounce back and level the playing field, having done so against formidable opponents like Nadal and Federer throughout his illustrious career. This resilience was evident in his triumph over Medvedev following his defeat in the 2021 US Open final. Alcaraz, on the other hand, will be wary of starting slowly against Djokovic, given the Serbian's determination for revenge.

The Wimbledon men's singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic is set to take place on Sunday, July 14, at 6:30 PM IST on Centre Court at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London. Indian viewers can catch the live telecast of the match on the Star Sports Network, while it will be available for live streaming on Hotstar.

Tennis fans around the world are eagerly awaiting this rematch, as Djokovic and Alcaraz battle it out to etch their names in Wimbledon's prestigious history.
