Sinner one win away from back to back Wimbledon titles, Zverev the last man standing between him and history

[CacheLayer Kate]

Jannik Sinner cruised past a 39 year old Novak Djokovic in straight sets in the semi final, hitting 16 aces and winning 88 percent of his first serve points to book his second consecutive Wimbledon final

Alexander Zverev had to work harder for his spot, needing a dominant tiebreak to shake off a slow start against home crowd favourite Arthur Fery before closing the match out in straight sets

Fery's run as a wildcard ranked outside the top 100 was one of the stories of the tournament, and losing to Zverev in the semi final does not take away from what was genuinely a career changing fortnight for the British player

Zverev is chasing something specific now, becoming just the seventh man in the Open Era to complete the Channel Slam by winning the French Open and Wimbledon back to back in the same season

Sinner comes into Sunday as the heavy favourite given his form against Djokovic, but Zverev has shown all tournament that he can grind out wins even when he is not playing his best tennis

Sinner has looked genuinely untouchable this fortnight, 88 percent first serve points won against peak level Djokovic is a ridiculous number

Fery reaching a Wimbledon semi final as a wildcard ranked outside the top 100 is one of the great stories of this tournament regardless of how it ended

The Channel Slam angle makes Sunday's final so much more interesting, Zverev has never actually won a Slam so the stakes could not be higher for him

Djokovic at 39 still forcing his way into a Wimbledon semi final is honestly remarkable even in a losing effort

[CrimsonNova71]

I think Zverev's slow start in the semi final is a worry heading into the final, Sinner will punish that kind of sluggishness from the first point

[Carol15]

Genuinely gutted for Fery, that run was the best thing to happen to British tennis in years and the home crowd deserved to see him go further

Sinner defending his title would be a huge statement given how stacked the men's game is right now with Alcaraz and Zverev both playing well

Video review technology being used for the first time this Wimbledon has been a quiet success story, barely any controversy compared to previous years

My money is on Sinner in four sets, Zverev needs a fast start and history says he rarely gets one in the biggest matches
