The final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, which Sinner won 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4, drew an average of 2.9 million viewers on ESPN, the network announced Wednesday. The numbers reportedly peaked at 4.0 million viewers at the end of the match.

Jannik Sinner overwhelmed a not-fully-fit Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon semifinals to set up a rematch with Carlos Alcaraz of their epic French Open final four weeks ago.

LONDON — Novak Djokovic began expressing a heartfelt thought about returning to the semifinals at the All England Club — “It means the world to me,” he was saying, “that I’m still able, at 38, to play (in the) final stages of Wimbledon” — when the Centre Court crowd interrupted with yelling and applause.
