On the other side, Medvedev started his Wimbledon campaign by defeating Aleksandar Kovacevic in straight sets, followed by wins over Alexandre Muller and Jan-Lennard Struff in four sets each.
The 28-year-old Russian progressed to the semifinals after a walkover against Grigor Dimitrov in the fourth round and a dramatic five-set victory over World No. 1 Jannik Sinner, with scores of 6-7 (7-9), 6-4, 7-6 (4), 2-6, 6-3, in the quarterfinals.
Alcaraz and Medvedev have faced off six times, with Alcaraz leading their head-to-head 4-2.
As the defending Wimbledon champion, Alcaraz is a formidable opponent, but Medvedev’s recent performance against Sinner shows he has the potential to challenge even the strongest contenders.
