Wimbledon 2024, men's singles final: Carlos Alcaraz and Novak ...

Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz of Spain will take on tennis legend Novak Djokovic of Serbia in the Wimbledon 2024 men’s singles final at the All England Club in London on Sunday.

The Carlos Alcaraz vs Novak Djokovic Wimbledon 2024 final will be contested at 11:00 PM Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST). The tennis match will be live streamed and broadcast in Australia.

Carlos Alcaraz, third in the world tennis rankings, can make it back-to-back Wimbledon titles and secure his fourth Grand Slam title. He also won the French Open last month.

In the Wimbledon semi-finals on Friday, Alcaraz mounted an impressive comeback to defeat fifth seed Daniil Medvedev 6(1)-7(7), 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 in two hours and 55 minutes at Centre Court.

A victory on Sunday would make Alcaraz the first Spanish tennis player to win back-to-back Wimbledon singles titles in the Open Era. He had defeated Djokovic in the final last year.

In the quarter-finals, Alcaraz dropped the first set against 12th-seed Tommy Paul of the USA but won the next three to make the top four. The Spanish tennis player was stretched to five games by Frances Tiafoe of the USA in the third round.

World No. 2 Djokovic, a seven-time champion at Wimbledon, will play in his 10th Grand Slam final at the All England Club. An injured Alex de Minaur handed him a walkover in the quarter-final before he beat world No. 25 Lorenzo Musetti 6-4, 7(7)-6(2), 6-4 in the semi-finals.

Djokovic’s route to the sixth Wimbledon final in a row included wins against Australian Alexei Popyrin in the third round while ousting 15th seed Holger Rune in the pre-quarterfinals.

An eighth Wimbledon men’s singles title would draw Djokovic level with Roger Federer. It would also be the 37-year-old’s 25th career Grand Slam, taking him past Margaret Court for the record.

The two tennis players Alcaraz and Djokovic have played each other five times. The Serbian edges the head-to-head record 3-2.

The duo contested the Wimbledon 2023 men’s singles final, where Alcaraz emerged victorious 1-6, 7-6, 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 after four hours and 42 minutes - the third-longest Wimbledon final in history.

The Carlos Alcaraz vs Novak Djokovic Wimbledon 2024 men’s singles final will be broadcast live at 11:00 PM AEST on Nine Network and Stan Sport in Australia.
