    Wimbledon is well underway and the paths to the men’s and women’s singles finals are starting to become clear.

    Reigning men’s champion and top seed Jannik Sinner is gathering form after a slow start at the Championships, while seventh seed Novak Djokovic remains a possible semi-final opponent for the Italian as the 39-year-old bids to win a record-breaking 25th grand slam title.

    Top seed Aryna Sabalenka now faces a blockbuster against Naomi Osaka, while reigning champion and third seed Iga Swiatek is also starting to find her rhythm on grass following an almighty scare in her first-round match against Taylor Townsend.

    French Open champion and women’s fifth seed Mirra Andreeva is out, though, losing to former Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova, who found the form of her 2024 title run to win 4-6 7-5 6-4 on Centre Court.

    On the men’s side, there was a string of upsets on the Friday, with rising stars Joao Fonseca and Rafael Jodar both falling to qualifiers, and eighth seed Daniil Medevedev losing in straight sets. Matteo Berrettini and Grigor Dimitrov are among the unseeded players whose paths to the finals are opening up.
