Carlos Alcaraz once again sowed the fans of the host country when he passed Cameron Norrie to enter the Wimbledon 2025 semi -finals, continuing the journey to protect the throne at the most prestigious Grand Slam.
Overcoming mental obstacles called “host”
The atmosphere at the central yard of Wimbledon exploded in the day Norrie came out with the enthusiastic encouragement from the British audience. But Carlos Alcaraz – the world's No. 2 player – is not moved. On the contrary, he performed the mature, cold, cold tennis to close the quarterfinals within 1 hour 39 minutes with a score of 6-2, 6-3, 6-3.
It is worth mentioning that Alcaraz has successfully saved all 5 Break Points that Norrie created – a testament to the steel bravery of the player who is only 22 years old. He became the second player who played in the ATP era at least 3 Wimbledon semi -finals, next to the Novak Djokovic monument.
Alcaraz shared after the match: “Playing in the Wimbledon semi -final is a very special thing. I know Cameron Norrie is an extremely hard -working and durable opponent, so today is a match that I have to devote all my efforts.”
Flexible style – weapon of the king
Unlike many other young players who prefer the game from the end of the field, Alcaraz often moves on the net, taking advantage of the flexible handling ability to win scores. Before Norrie, he won 14/16 points when serve and then on the net – an incredible performance.
In the one -serving serve, the Spanish tennis player was even more impressive: the winning rate of 89% (50/56) and launched 12 ACEs – turned each ball into the opponent's obsession.
This victory also extended the unbeaten series of Alcaraz at the tour level to 23 consecutive games – a terrible form before the upcoming semi -final.
Wait for the great war with Taylor Fritz – the emerging grass king
In the semi -finals, Alcaraz will face Taylor Fritz – American player who owns a series of 9 wins and has just crowned in Stuttgart and Eastbourne. Fritz also accumulated 5 titles on the pitch, only behind Djokovic among the players playing. However, Alcaraz is dominating 2-0 against Fritz in the ATP system.
Carlos Alcaraz rated the upcoming opponent: “Fritz is in extremely high form. I know I need to prepare a steel spirit for the upcoming battle. But right now, I want to live a full moment – Wimbledon semi -finals are not easy.”
Touch History: Dream Roland Garros – Wimbledon Double
If this year's Wimbledon championship, Alcaraz will become the second player in the opening era – after the legendary Bjorn Borg – winning a double Luoland Garros and Wimbledon for two consecutive years. This achievement not only raised his total Grand Slam to 6 titles, but also strengthened its position as a true successor for Big Three.
Currently, he has not been able to surpass Jannik Sinner to regain the No. 1 position in the world, but the distance of 2,640 points on the ATP Live Race To Turin is turning Alcaraz into the number one candidate for the No. 1 tennis player at the end of the year.
At the age of 22, Carlos Alcaraz is no longer a “potential” – he is really rewriting the history of modern tennis. And if he continues to show his bravery as he did before Norrie, no one dared to doubt the silver trophy will continue to be kept under the name “Carlitos”. Wimbledon 2025, most likely, will be the stage for the glorious hat-trick named Alcaraz.
