The tournament is nearing its completion with spots in the semifinals up for grabs on Wednesday

The 2024 Wimbledon has seen its fair share of exciting upsets, and the action continues as the semifinals are shaping up. Carlos Alcaraz is still on a mission to defend his 2023 trophy, but the women’s competition has been more unpredictable.
Last year’s winner Markéta Vondroušová was upset in the first round. Then, World No. 1 Iga Swiatek lost to Yulia Putintseva in the third round. Putintseva didn’t make it much further as she fell to No. 13 seed Jelena Ostapenko in the round of 16.
Another big shock was seeing No. 2 Coco Gauff fall to Emma Navarro in straight sets in the round of 16. The quarterfinals saw Navarro struggle to compete against No. 7 seed Jasmine Paolini, the Italian star who reached the French Open final last month.
No. 3 Aryna Sabalenka withdrew from Wimbledon due to a right shoulder injury, that leaves No. 4 Elena Rybakina as the top seed in the women’s singles seed left standing. Rybakina, the 2022 Wimbledon Champion, will be taking on No. 21 Elina Svitolina during Wednesday’s quarterfinal.
On the men’s side, defending champion Carlos Alcaraz advanced to the semifinals after a 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2 win over American star Tommy Paul.
Meanwhile, World No. 1 Jannik Sinner took a medical timeout in the middle of a five-set battle against No. 5 Daniil Medvedev. Despite a strong effort, Sinner fell short and now Medvedev is advancing to the Wimbledon semifinals for the second consecutive year.
Here is the schedule, key matchups, and singles seeds for Wimbledon 2024.
