Wimbledon: Sinner's practice cancelled, he then plays indoors. Alcaraz and Fritz in the semi-finals

"We went out to the indoor courts for 20-30 minutes, just to let him feel the ball. He'll be fine, it was good to be back on the court. It's impossible for him to take a day off,' Darren Cahill, coach of Jannik Sinner, told Tennis Now, after the world number one tennis player had cancelled his booked practice on the Aorangi Park court. The missed outdoor test, after yesterday's fall in the first game of the match with Dimitrov, was replaced by a short indoor session. Words, those of Cahill, that partly dispel doubts about Jannik's physical state in view of the quarter-final against the American Ben Shelton scheduled tomorrow on court 1 (immediately after the match between Iga Swiatek and Liudmila Samsonova, which starts at 2 pm). Last night, in the post-match press conference with the Bulgarian - who withdrew due to a right pectoral problem - Sinner had announced an MRI for this morning. It is not clear what the nature of the blow to the elbow was that did not allow him to express himself at his best (he felt pain when hitting forehands and serving).

Meanwhile, Carlos Alcaraz won cleanly against Cameron Norrie in less than two hours, advancing to the semifinals, while in the other quarter, Taylor Fritz beat Khachanov in four sets. Tomorrow Flavio Cobolli and Nole Djokovic play on the centre court: it is the second match after the match between Mirra Andreeeva and Belinda Bencic (starting at 14.30).
