(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 5 - Italy's Jannik Sinner fell short of
beating Serb legend Novak Djokovic in their Wimbledon
quarter-final Tuesday.

and long looked the better player against the 20-time Grand Slam
winner.
No 1 seed and world number one Djokovic, 34, fought back to win
the last three sets.
The game went 5-7, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 in three and a half hours.
Sinner survived an injury scare in the fourth set after slipping
and turning his ankle. (ANSA).
