Becker has endured a tempestuous life off the court as he battled personal issues and financial problems.

Carlos Alcaraz says he has refused to let his Wimbledon finals loss to Jannik Sinner wipe the smile from his face as he prepares for his start at the ATP-WTA Cincinnati Masters.

"Every time we play each other, I think our level is really high."

Iga Swiatek pleaded with the Polish media to "leave me alone", saying she knows what she is doing after crushing Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 to win her first Wimbledon title on Saturday.

History suggests the grand finale on the hallowed lawns will be tight. Expect fire, finesse, and perhaps another five-set epic.

On Saturday, Wimbledon marked her love of the towels by presenting the new champion with a personalised purple and green version -- one that can never be taken away from her.

The Polish eighth seed completed the most lopsided of finals to win her sixth Grand Slam title.

Top seed Jannik Sinner said he would not be in the Wimbledon final if he still harboured the hurt from his heart-breaking defeat by Carlos Alcaraz in the French Open final and believed Sunday's meeting would be different.

Novak Djokovic said the reality of his age was hitting him "like never before" after he was crushed by world number one Jannik Sinner in the Wimbledon semifinals on Friday.

Aryna Sabalenka took a swipe at Amanda Anisimova over her behaviour during the American's stunning Wimbledon semi-final victory on Thursday.

Amanda Anisimova stunned world number one Aryna Sabalenka to reach her first Wimbledon final on Thursday, coming out on top in a fierce battle of the power-hitters to win 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.

It was the only major where she had failed to reach at least the last four and there was little evidence that she had the desire to improve that record -- until this year.

"I don't know what to say because he's an incredible player. I think we all saw this today," said Sinner.

Djokovic will play Italian 22nd seed Flavio Cobolli in the last eight, with a potential semi-final looming against world number one Jannik Sinner.

Wimbledon fans will have eyes only for the tennis this week but for those who run the world’s oldest and most prestigious Grand Slam, the real high-stakes contest will unfold not on their grass, but in London’s Royal Courts of Justice.

Djokovic's 100 wins puts him behind only Roger Federer's 105 victories in the men's game and nine-time winner Martina Navratilova's all-time record of 120.

The Italian three-time Grand Slam champion eased past his 52nd-ranked opponent 6-1, 6-3, 6-1.

Aryna Sabalenka overcame a fierce challenge from Emma Raducanu and a partisan Centre Court crowd to stay on track for her first Wimbledon title on Friday.

Carlos Alcaraz survived another erratic performance on Friday, battling to a 6-1, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 win over Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff to stay on track for a third straight Wimbledon crown.

British amateur Oliver Tarvet said facing Carlos Alcaraz at Wimbledon was the "most special day" of his life, but the world number 733 has no intention of turning professional just yet.
