Djokovic Ends Cobolli’s Wimbledon Dream in Four-Set Battle
What a match we witnessed today at Wimbledon—an absolute rollercoaster on Centre Court. Novak Djokovic, the seven-time champion, advanced to his 14th Wimbledon semi-final, but not without a real fight. His opponent? A name that's now echoing through tennis circles: Flavio Cobolli.
Now, if you hadn’t heard much about Cobolli before, you’re definitely going to hear a lot more going forward. The young Italian pushed Djokovic to the edge, and for a moment, it truly looked like a potential upset was brewing. Cobolli took the first set in a tense tiebreak, 7-6 (8-6), and the crowd felt the electricity. Here was a 22nd seed, standing toe-to-toe with one of the greatest players of all time—and not backing down.

Djokovic, as always, found a way. He adjusted, sharpened his focus, and started asserting himself. The second set went decisively his way, 6-2. But even then, Cobolli didn't fade. The third set was a slugfest—each point contested like it was match point. Djokovic edged it 7-5, and you could feel the shift in momentum. Still, Cobolli stayed aggressive, fearless, and determined to make every shot count.
The fourth set saw more brilliance from both men, but experience took the upper hand. Djokovic closed it out 6-4, not without drama—there was a tense moment when he slipped awkwardly on the grass. But ever the warrior, he regrouped, finished strong, and even led the applause as Cobolli walked off the court.
This match wasn't just about Djokovic progressing. It was about a rising star announcing himself on the world stage. Cobolli’s magical Wimbledon run may have ended, but his fight, talent, and composure under pressure were undeniable. Djokovic himself praised the young Italian, calling him talented and someone we’ll definitely be seeing more of. And I couldn’t agree more.
For Djokovic, it's now Sinner in the semis—a matchup loaded with history and expectations. But today, all eyes were on Cobolli, the underdog who made Centre Court believe in miracles for a set and a half. He didn’t just play a good match—he earned respect from a legend and the world watching.
One thing is clear: Cobolli isn’t just part of the future of tennis. After today, he’s part of its present.
