Wimbledon 2026: Djokovic's final Grand Slam chance fades as Dimitrov battles on
Novak Djokovic was eliminated in the Wimbledon semifinals by Jannik Sinner, a loss commentators say has likely ended his realistic hopes of securing a 25th Grand Slam title. Former British No. 1 Greg Rusedski noted that Djokovic, now 39, appeared physically drained after a marathon match against Félix Auger‑Aliassime and questioned whether he has enough energy left for another major victory.
Meanwhile, Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov continues to navigate the pressure of the grass‑court tournament, showcasing his versatile game against opponents such as Arthur Fery. Analysts highlight his strong first serve, tactical patience and movement on the fast surface as key factors that could carry him deeper into the draw.
