Carlos Alcaraz continued his relentless march toward a historic third consecutive Wimbledon title, defeating Britain's Cameron Norrie 6-2, 6-3, 6-3 in a commanding quarterfinal performance on Tuesday. The 22-year-old Spaniard showcased his trademark blend of power and precision, needing just over two hours to secure his spot in the semifinals.
Alcaraz, now on a career-best 23-match winning streak, is eyeing a rare Roland Garros-Wimbledon double in consecutive years—a feat achieved only by Bjorn Borg in the Open Era. With five titles this season, including his recent French Open triumph, the world number two has also become the first player to qualify for the 2024 ATP Finals.
Norrie, ranked 42nd, struggled to counter Alcaraz's aggressive baseline play despite moments of spirited resistance. The British player, a four-time Wimbledon quarterfinalist, saved three match points before Alcaraz sealed victory with a 125 mph ace.
"I'm super happy to play another semifinal here," Alcaraz said post-match. "Cam's an amazing player who works harder than anyone. I'm proud to share the court with him."
Next, Alcaraz faces Taylor Fritz, who seeks his first Grand Slam final. A win would place the Spaniard alongside Roger Federer as the only active men with four Wimbledon finals appearances.
