By the time they hit the third set, it turned into a full-blown battle of willpower. Both players trading breaks, long rallies pushing them physically and mentally to the limit. Djokovic’s experience started to show as he managed to take that third set, going up 2-1, but De Minaur didn’t back down. He was holding his own, fighting for every game, every point. The fourth set started with De Minaur under immense pressure on serve, Djokovic pressing hard, taking him to deuce, even holding break points. But the Aussie hung tough, refusing to fold. At one point, he even smacked a wild shot into his own thigh—frustration, yes, but also a sign of how invested he was in every moment.
Elsewhere, the day was packed with action—Belinda Bencic secured her spot in her first-ever Wimbledon quarterfinal, fighting off nerves and tears, and Flavio Cobolli outlasted veteran Marin Cilic in a thrilling four-setter. Ben Shelton and Lorenzo Sonego also took to the court, with Sonego stealing an early lead. And let’s not forget the legend Roger Federer, spotted in the royal box—because honestly, where else would he be?
Back to De Minaur—this match is more than just another encounter. It feels like a coming-of-age moment. The Demon, as they call him, is proving he’s not just a fast mover or a scrappy player—he's got the heart, the grit, and increasingly, the game to take on the sport's elite. Djokovic might still have the upper hand, but De Minaur is giving him everything he can handle, and then some.
Whatever the final score ends up being, one thing’s for sure: De Minaur has arrived. And Wimbledon 2025 won’t forget this battle anytime soon.
