Novak Djokovic gave everything he had in his Wimbledon semi-final against world no. 1 Jannik Sinner. However, the 38-year-old fell shortly physically and tactically in a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 defeat in an hour and 55 minutes.

Every other day at Wimbledon has brought an opportunity to compare the greatest player in men's tennis and one of his heirs.

In a fitting conclusion, Djokovic was a little more than a spectator as he returned one final serve and stood motionless at the side of the court, Sinner sealing victory with no resistance. There will be no such luxury come Sunday.
