Wimbledon 2023: Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic, Daniil Medvedev, Aryna Sabalenka Enter Round Of 16
Carlos Alcaraz reached the last 16 at Wimbledon on Saturday after a tough battle against Nicolas Jarry as defending women's champion Elena Rybakina prepared to face Britain's last hope Katie Boulter. Rain returned to the All England Club, meaning play on Centre Court started under the roof. Top seed Alcaraz is seen as the biggest threat to Novak Djokovic, who is gunning for a record-equalling eighth men's title and 24th Grand Slam crown overall.

Alcaraz bounced back from losing his first set of the tournament to lead 2-1 but narrowly avoided going a double break down in the fourth set before rediscovering his mojo.
