Jannik Sinner became the youngest tennis player to reach the Wimbledon semi-finals since 2007, but the record was held for only one day. On July 12, the record was doubled by the winner of the match between Carlos Alcaraz and Holger Rune.
Jannik Sinner became the youngest Wimbledon semi-finalist since 2007, when rising tennis star Novak Djokovic reached the penultimate stage of the tournament in 2007. Jannik Sinner advanced to the Wimbledon semi-finals after beating Russian Roman Safiullin 6:4, 3:6, 6:2, 6:2. This will be the first grand slam semi-final for the Italian.
The record broken by Jannik Sinner was noticed in the post-match interview with the Italian. Interestingly, it was noted that the record will only be held by Sinner for one day, as it will be doubled on July 12 by the winner of the quarter-final match between Carlos Alcaraz and Holger Rune. How did Sinner react to these revelations? How does it feel to be a one-day record holder?
