Who is Novak Djokovic playing against?
Djokovic's next opponent, Carlos Alcaraz has taken the tennis world by storm.
Alcaraz stumbled at the Monte-Carlo Masters, losing his opener to Sebastian Korda. However, he rebounded in style by winning the Barcelona Open and making his top-10 debut as a result.
At the Madrid Open this week, he defeated Nikoloz Basilashvili in straight sets in the second round to begin his campaign.
Alcaraz needed three sets to get the better of Cameron Norrie after that. Up against his idol Rafael Nadal in the quarterfinals, the teenager overcame a second-set stumble to defeat the 21-time Major champion 6-2, 1-6, 6-3.
Alcaraz will now face Djokovic for the first time in his career.
