Each player is riding the confidence of a straight-set quarterfinal win.The hometown favorite dispatched French Open finalist Flavio Cobolli in an impressive 6-4, 7-6(4), 6-0 showing. Cobolli looked worn out against Fery’s overbearing style of tennis, which has now outlasted five players, including former world No. 3 Grigor Dimitrov.The Fery-tale continues at WimbledonSecond-seeded Zverev also took advantage of a physically hampered opponent, the United States’ Taylor Fritz. After taking a medical timeout in the second set, Fritz was unable to find his footing. Zverev went on to claim the set and secured two early breaks in the third, ending his seven-match losing streak to the American.This semifinal presents a tantalizing affair on the court: Fery’s excellent mobility and clinical backhand redirection against Zverev’s big serve and pure groundstrokes from behind the baseline. Zverev will need to serve lights out and end points early in order to deal with Fery and the rowdy Centre Court crowd.The second semifinal is another rematch between Sinner and Djokovic. Last year at Wimbledon, Sinner won their meeting, also in the semifinal round. In January, Djokovic prevailed in their Australian Open semifinal. Though both had disappointing French Open performances, the pair have not missed a beat since.At the All England Club, Sinner survived a first-round, five-set test against Serbia’s Miomir Kecmanović before proceeding to win every set in the following rounds. In contrast, Djokovic has spent over 16 hours playing in this tournament, and three more than Sinner. The Italian will look to take advantage of the 39-year-old’s extended time on court, especially after Djokovic’s five-hour quarterfinal win against Canada’s Félix Auger-Aliassime.Sinner has an opportunity to redeem himself after losing to Djokovic in Melbourne and reach his first major final of the season. Zverev and Sinner are the favorites to advance to the men’s championship on Sunday.Updated Wimbledon men’s singles oddsStreaming links in this article are provided by partners of The Athletic.
