Jannik Sinner's Wimbledon path clears after major upsets

Two unexpected defeats at Wimbledon have smoothed the draw for Italy's Jannik Sinner. Sixth‑seed Daniil Medvedev was knocked out in three sets by Germany's Jan‑Lennard Struff, and 23rd‑seed Rafael Jodar fell to Japan's qualifier Shintaro Mochizuki after winning the first set. Those results remove potential quarter‑final opponents for Sinner, leaving him to meet Mochizuki in the round of 16 and, if successful, face the winner of the Struff‑Hubert Hurkacz match in the quarter‑finals. A continued run could set up a possible semi‑final clash with the tournament's top seed, Novak Djokovic.

Meanwhile, Spain's Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz spent a brief holiday along the Amalfi Coast. Docked at Positano aboard his 27‑metre yacht, he joined friends and family for dinner at the local restaurant "Adamo ed Eva" after signing autographs for fans. The appearance highlights the personal side of the tournament for the young star, who has also been spotted on the nearby island of Procida.
