produced his best performance at the tournament to defeat Djokovic 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 and earn a place in the final of Wimbledon for the second year in a row.<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic was very much outclassed on Centre Court, but he remained a gentleman following the match according to eyewitnesses behind the scenes at Wimbledon.<\/p>\n<p>Rennae Stubbs, who won the Wimbledon doubles title in 2001 and 2004, was backstage at Wimbledon for the aftermath of Djokovic\u2019s semi-final with Sinner.<\/p>\n<p>The Australian star, who is now part of Serena Williams\u2019 coaching team for her comeback, said

things you learn about players and their respect for each other is always so nice to see. Congratulations to both for a wonderful match. Jannik Sinner just too good today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic remained a figure of class during his post-match press conference too, where he heaped praise on Sinner\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was much better player on the court and was the dominant force,\u201d said Djokovic to the press. \u201cYou just have to hand it to him and say, Congrats, well done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic was particularly impressed with Sinner\u2019s serve, which was both powerful and precise throughout all three sets of the semi-final.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou cannot attack his first serve. You can try to read it, chip it, block it, get it back in play. Very unpredictable serve, great variety, great balance, great pop,\u201d said Djokovic about the Italian\u2019s biggest weapon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s using his height extremely well. Also second serve very deep in the box. A lot of rotation. He can go for speed. He doesn\u2019t make many double-faults.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s just super solid. He backs it up with first aggressive shot. If you play a shorter return, you\u2019re, again, on your back foot. It\u2019s really tough to play him, particularly when he serves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After their Wimbledon meeting, Djokovic and Sinner are now locked at six wins apiece in their head-to-head record.<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic\u2019s quest for that elusive 25th Grand Slam will continue into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/us-open\">US Open<\/a>, where he will be hoping to win the Flushing Meadows event for the fifth time in his career.<\/p>\n<p>As for Sinner, he will continue on to the final of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/wimbledon\">Wimbledon<\/a>, where he will play <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/alexander-zverev\">Alexander Zverev<\/a> in the final.
