Novak Djokovic will take on Carlos Alcaraz in blockbuster Olympic final

Novak Djokovic will meet Carlos Alcaraz in a blockbuster gold medal match after finally breaking his Olympic semi-final hoodoo.

Remarkably, this was the fourth time Djokovic had made it this far at the Games and the first time he has come out on top, with a bronze in 2008 his only previous medal.

Now he is guaranteed to better it after defeating Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti 6-4 6-2, setting up a rematch of the Wimbledon final, where he was well beaten by Alcaraz.
