Center court

Sachin Tendulkar became the most recent Indian icon to be seen watching the intense action that unfolded in the Wimbledon semi-finals at the Centre Court of the All England Tennis Club on Friday.

A gripping day unfolded on the Center Court as Carlos Alcaraz and Taylor Fritz indulged in a gritty battle which the former won 6-4, 5-7, 6-3, 7-6 (6). Although the first semi-final provided much excitement, World No.1 Jannik Sinner breezed past Novak Djokovic in straight sets to set up yet another final against the Spaniard, a month after the two went toe-to-toe in a grand encounter in the Roland Garros final.
