Novak Djokovic clinched a spot in Wimbledon's semifinals following Wednesday's win over Flavio Cobolli (6-7, 6-2, 7-5, 6-4) despite a scary fall in the final game of the match. Djokovic slipped on the grass after a forehand attempt led to a return from Cobolli that hit the net cord and made Djokovic lean to his left.

The seven-time winner and reigning men’s world No1 are due to clash on Centre Court on Friday for a place in the final at the All England Club, while defending back-to-back champion Carlos Alcaraz meets American fifth seed Taylor Fritz.

Djokovic, who is looking for a record-equaling eighth Wimbledon title and a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title, battled and then surged past the Italian No. 22 seed Cobolli 6-7 (6), 6-2, 7-5, 6-4 to set up Friday’s date with Sinner.
