Alcaraz's tennis is so often a highlight reel but on grass, he does his most devastating work in the negative spaces of points.

Alcaraz hopes to become the first player on the men's tour since Bjorn Borg to complete the French Open-Wimbledon double in consecutive years. Alcaraz is only the third defending Wimbledon champion all-time to be taken to five sets in the first round of the following year's Grand Slam.

Second-seeded Alcaraz is currently on a career-best 19-match winning streak, but struggled against Fognini who has never been past the third round at Wimbledon.
