Alcaraz vs Berrettini LIVE! Wimbledon 2023 latest build-up, score and updates from Centre Court
lcaraz vs Berrettini LIVE!
Carlos Alcaraz faces the sternest test of his Wimbledon credentials to date as he takes on Matteo Berrettini on Centre Court this evening. The world number one is now on an eight-match winning run on grass after victory at Queen’s, and came through some troubling moments against Nicolas Jarry to set up this fourth-round clash.
This is just the third time Alcaraz has featured in the Wimbledon main draw, the 20-year-old already matching his previous best run. The possibility of a final against Novak Djokovic on Sunday afternoon looms, but there is plenty of work to do before then.
Berrettini reached the final himself at SW19 two years ago, losing to Djokovic in four sets, and the Italian has roared back to form in sensational fashion over the past week. Injury has wrecked Berrettini’s schedule in recent months, but he has put that behind him to already knock out seeds Alex de Minaur and Alexander Zverev.
