Coco Gauff, world number 2 and author of an impressive run so far, was eliminated on Sunday in the round of 16 at Wimbledon by her American compatriot Emma Navarro (17th), victorious 6-4, 6-3.

Navarro, who at 23 is playing in her second Wimbledon after a first-round exit last year, will be looking to reach the semi-finals when she faces Italian Jasmine Paolini (7th). Her best result so far in a Grand Slam was the round of 16 at this year’s Roland Garros.

Tommy Paul expeditious

American Tommy Paul, ranked 13th in the world and winner of the Queen’s, beat Spaniard Roberto Bautista (ranked 112th) 6-2, 7-6 (7/3), 6-2 on Sunday at Wimbledon and will meet defending champion Carlos ALcaraz in the quarter-finals.

At 27, Paul is having his best run at Wimbledon: for his first participation in 2022 he lost in the round of 16 and last year he was beaten in the third round. He played the semi-finals at the Australian Open in 2023, which remains his best Grand Slam result to date.

Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are among the top favorites at Wimbledon. Both remain in the race for the title by reaching the quarterfinals.

The exciting Wimbledon semi-final between defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner is getting closer. The two title candidates have advanced to the quarter-finals of the world’s most important grass tennis tournament and are now only one win away from a direct duel.

Last year’s champion Alcaraz had more problems in his round of 16 match in London. After losing the next set, the Spaniard held his own in an entertaining match against a strong Frenchman Ugo Humbert with 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5. World number one Sinner stopped the winning streak of American Ben Shelton and won 6:2, 6:4, 7:6 (11:9).

Alcaraz is in the round of the best eight at Wimbledon for only the second time and is one step closer to defending his title. “I felt great today, I think I played at a really high level,” said Alcaraz, who triumphed in the final against Serbian top star Novak Djokovic a year ago.

Under the closed roof of the hall in once again rainy London, left-hander Humbert challenged the Spaniard with his active game. In the meantime, the Spanish number three in the world suffered four consecutive serve losses. It was only after almost three hours that Alcaraz secured the quarter-finals with a win against the 2021 Halle winner.

Game, set, match: These stars have tennis fever

The point that secured Alcaraz the second set caused a strange scene: In the middle of the rally, he landed on the grass, but quickly picked himself up and won the point in the end. “Unbelievable,” he would probably have said himself if he had had to comment on the point, said Alcaraz.

To reach the semifinals, Alcaraz must beat the American Tommy Paul or his Spanish compatriot Roberto Bautista Agut in the round of the best eight. Sinner will face the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov or the Russian former US Open winner Daniil Medvedev.

On another rainy day at Wimbledon, the matches on the outdoor courts once again began significantly late and were interrupted again after a short time. By the afternoon, only two doubles matches had been completed on the uncovered courts.
