CNN —Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz reached his second straight Wimbledon final on Friday, beating Daniil Medvedev 6-7(1) 6-3 6-4 6-4 in an entertaining semifinal encounter on Centre Court. After the match, Spaniard Alcaraz bravely joked with the crowd that “Sunday is going to be a good day for Spanish people” ahead of the Wimbledon final and Euro 2024 final, in which Spain will face England, drawing loud boos. Alcaraz then held his hands together, asking for forgiveness from the crowd with a big grin on his face. “I just said it’s going to be a fun day.”Still only 21 years old, Alcaraz is now into the fourth grand slam final of his career. That is now 13 straight wins at Wimbledon for Alcaraz and 13 straight grand slam victories after winning the French Open last month.
