World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz will look to advance to his third consecutive Wimbledon singles final with a win on Friday.

Carlos Alcaraz will be playing for a third consecutive Wimbledon title after the 22-year-old Spaniard beat Taylor Fritz in the semifinal round.

Two-time defending champ denies the fifth seed’s bid to be the first American man to win a semifinal there since 2009 with a 6-4, 5-7, 6-3, 7-6 (6) victory.

Carlos Alcaraz defeated Taylor Fritz in four sets to move within one victory of a third consecutive Wimbledon championship.

Moving within one victory of a sixth Grand Slam title at age 22, Alcaraz defeated Taylor Fritz, 6-4, 5-7, 6-3, 7-6 (8-6).

Alcaraz is establishing a Grand Slam pattern which spells danger for the rest of the field: get him early, or risk not getting him at all.
