Carlos Alcaraz vs Frances Tiafoe, Wimbledon 2024, 3R: Where to watch, TV schedule, live streaming details and more
Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will renew his rivalry with Frances Tiafoe when they meet in the third round of Wimbledon on Friday, July 5. The Spaniard commenced his title defence with a 7-6 (5), 7-5, 6-2 win over qualifier Mark Lajal.
Alcaraz then faced Aleksandar Vukic in the second round. It was one-way traffic after a tight first set as the 21-year-old registered a 7-6 (5), 6-2, 6-2 victory. It marked his ninth consecutive win at the venue as well as at the Majors, which started with his French Open triumph last month.
Tiafoe looked down and out in the first round but rallied from two sets down to score a 6-7 (5), 2-6, 6-1, 6-3, 6-3 win over Matteo Arnaldi. It was smooth sailing for him in the second round as he beat Borna Coric 7-6 (5), 6-1, 6-3.
Alcaraz and Tiafoe have split their previous two meetings evenly to tie the head-to-head at 1-1. The former won their most recent encounter at the 2022 US Open in five sets, while the latter won their first match at the 2021 Barcelona Open in straight sets.
Tiafoe's results this season haven't been up to his usual standards, and he recently expressed his frustration regarding the same. However, he seems to be rounding into form just in time.
Their previous match at the US Open was a classic, and if they play the same way once again, then fans are in for a treat. On that note, here are all the details regarding their upcoming match:
