Fabio Fognini will make his last Wimbledon memorable! On Monday, the veteran will face the defending champion Carlos Alcaraz on Centre Court, seeking his first ATP win of the season against the most formidable opponent.

Only four men have won three Wimbledon titles in a row in the Open era, which began in 1968: Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic.

Carlos Alcaraz, locked in a five-set struggle at Centre Court, looked toward his coach Monday and shouted something about how Fabio Fognini — 38 years old, retiring after this season, winless in 2025 — looked as if he could keep playing until he’s 50.
