The Wimbledon Semifinal match between reigning champion Novak Djokovic and Italy’s Jannik Sinner is a rematch of their historic quarterfinal encounter from last year at the same major. Today’s match, however, wasn’t without its fair share of drama and controversy.
Handed a controversial hindrance call at a crucial point during the second set, Djokovic managed to regroup and win the set 6–4. In yet another incident during the final stages of the third set, Djokovic responded to the crowd disturbing him during his service routine. This led to an already polarized crowd booing him and backing Sinner to break his serve.
After a clutch game during the 3rd set to level the score at 5-5, which saw Sinner squander 2 set points against the Serb, the Italian vented his frustration by hitting the racket on his hip.
