CARLOS ALCARAZ is eyeing up double Spanish success on a "perfect Sunday".
The 21-year-old is one win away from a second successive Wimbledon title after fighting back from a set down to defeat Daniil Medvedev.
It was a repeat of last year's semifinal, which the Spaniard had won easily, but this time he was made to work harder for his 6-7 (1) 6-3 6-4 6-4 victory.
Now he must try to stage another repeat in the final, with seven-time champion Novak Djokovic again the man across the other side of the net.
Alcaraz has become a at firm favourite Wimbledon but he experienced booing on Centre Court after his match when he suggested it was going to be a good day for Spanish people tomorrow.
The title decider on Centre Court will be followed by Spain's Euro 2024 final against England in Germany, which football fan Alcaraz will be hugely invested in.
