Opportunities for Djokovic to revenge sinner

*Djokovic - Sinner: 22h today 11/7, on VnExpress. At Roland Garros last month, Italian player won his seniors in the three semi -finals, then lost to Alcaraz in the final.

The script was repeating at All England Club this week, when Alcaraz went to the finish line, Sinner continued to cope with the richest achievement player in history. The past belongs to Djokovic, but the present is Sinner with 5 victories in the last 6 encounters, including 4 consecutive games since the semi -final of the Davis Cup 2023.

Djokovic has not won Sinner for nearly two years, from the final ATP Finals 2023. Sinner blocked Nole in the Australian semi -finals expanding 2023, the final Masters 1000 Shanghai and the semi -finals of Roland Garros this season.

rare players in the history of Djokovic overwhelming continuously like Sinner. Alcaraz defeated Djokovic two Wimbledon finals, but lost 5 in 8 confrontations. The question with Djokovic right now is any solution to overcome Sinner, when he was over 38.

"Actually, I played not bad in the last losses, simply Sinner better at the important moments of the match ," Djokovic talked about the upcoming Wimbledon semi -finals.

Djokovic still shows high level, dedicated many eye -catching balls and pushed juniors to the limit in Sinner's confrontation circuit. In Paris last month, he had many good games, forcing the Italian player to go through a difficult match, with the difference of each set of no more than two games. In the last three confrontations, the two of them had to play three tie-break series.

Sinner still maintained high form, but somewhat uncertain as in Roland Garros. He should have lost the Wimbledon quarter -final against Grigor Dimitrov if the opponent was not injured to give up. It was also the match that Sinner fell, leading to elbow pain. Despite this, the number one seed buried Ben Shelton in the semi -finals with the three sets of winning. The pitch is not the strongest surface of the Italian player. While sweeping the largest hard field events, Sinner has never been to the Wimbledon final. In addition to Federer, Djokovic is the only player who rolled through the 100 victory of Grand Slam. He played the last six finals and lost only 12 matches in two decades. At this favorite surface, Djokovic has twice won Sinner, quarterfinals 2022 and semi -finals 2023.

In Roland Garros, Djokovic has changed the Sinner fighting tactic, with short -term cuts of durable balls, small removal and more diverse ball distribution. Wimbledon grass may be more suitable for this tactic to bring more advantages to Djokovic. Over the past week, the rate on the successful score of Djokovic was 67%, with at least 30 times on the net each game. "I played quite firmly in recent matches with Sinner but it was not enough to bring about the victory ", Djokovic said. However, this may be just a defensive measure before the big battle. If both are energetic, the opportunity is still in favor of Sinner thanks to youth, stability and confidence. Sinner was almost completely familiar with Djokovic's shadow before their 10th confrontation. On the other side of the net, the complete change of tactics and how to play at the age of 38 is impossible with Djokovic.
