Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz: Beaten in five sets after leading 2-0 in the Australian Open final, fifth seed Daniil Medvedev stunned World No.1 Jannik Sinner in a five-set thriller in the men's singles quarterfinal at Wimbledon on Tuesday. Medvedev also exacted revenge for his other defeat to Sinner at the Miami Open as he earned an epic 6-7(7), 6-4, 7-6(4), 2-6, 6-3 win to snap a five-match losing streak against the Italian.

The match looking taking the usual course as Sinner won a tight first set, but Medvedev had other ideas he came back strongly to alter the course of history. The fifth seed stood deep behind the baseline and went into lockdown mode to grind down the World No. 1, who received a medical timeout in the third set due to illness.

At 1-2, the Italian had his pulse checked by a doctor before he walked off the court to receive further treatment. Sinner continued but had his head in his towel at times during changeovers.
