Novak Djokovic is more than a decade older than any other man in the Wimbledon semifinals. He says it motivates him to see if he can keep going toe-to-toe against the younger players at the top of tennis these days.
The 38-year-old overcame a first-set loss to take a 6-7, 6-2, 7-5, 6-4 victory over Italian Flavio Cobolli to advance to the semifinals for the 14th time at the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club. Djokovic has now reached the final four at Wimbledon more than any other men's tennis player, surpassing Roger Federer on Wednesday.
