Wimbledon: Grigor Dimitrov has partially torn pec after retiring vs. Jannik Sinner, could return in time for US Open
Grigor Dimitrov was in full control on Monday with a chance for one of the biggest upsets at Wimbledon. But an apparent pectoral injury ended his day early, and he was forced to retire while holding a two-set lead over No. 1 seed Jannik Sinner. Advertisement Sinner advances to the quarterfinals after appearing to be on the verge of falling victim to a stunning Round of 16 upset. Dimitrov held a 6-3, 7-5, 2-2 lead at the time of his injury. Dimitrov, seeded 19th, retires from a Grand Slam match for a fifth straight time. He'd previously retired from Wimbledon and the US Open in 2024 and the Australian Open and French Open this year. Per a report from Bulgaria's Tennis Kafe on Tuesday, Dimitrov's manager Georgi Stoimenov announced that he sustained a partial tear of his pectoralis major muscle. Per the report, the injury will sideline Dimitrov for at least three tournaments, but he could return to the court in time for the US Open that starts in late August. Dimitrov sustained the injury while serving. He immediately fell to the ground in pain and clutched his right pec with his left hand. As trainers rushed to the court to tend to him, Dimitrov laughed, apparently aware of the gravity of his injury. Dimitrov then walked to the bench to continue to receive medical treatment before leaving the court for a medical timeout. Moments later, he returned to the court to shake Sinner's hand, having concluded that he could not continue to play. Sinner put his arm around Dimitrov's back as they walked to shake hands with the chair umpire. An appreciative Centre Court crowd gave Dimitrov a rousing ovation as he packed up his bag. Advertisement The win denied Dimitrov his deepest run at Wimbledon since he advanced to the semifinals in 2014. Sinner advances to stay alive for a fourth Grand Slam victory since the 2024 Australian Open. Sinner won the Australian Open in 2024 and 2025 and secured the US Open title last fall. Dimitrov was dominant before injury Sinner faced his first challenge at Wimbledon against Dimitrov following a sensational start through the first three rounds. Fresh off a run to the French Open final, Sinner cruised through the first three rounds via runaway wins by scores of (6-4, 6-3, 6-0), (6-1, 6-1, 6-3) and (6-3, 6-1, 6-1). But Dimitrov put Sinner to the test immediately by breaking his first serve of the match. Dimitrov didn't lose a service game en route to a 6-3 first-set win. Dimitrov then took immediate control of the second set by breaking Sinner's first serve again. Advertisement Sinner rallied for his first break of the match to temporarily fend off a 2-0 deficit and tie the set at 5-5. But Dimitrov broke Sinner's ensuing serve, then held serve to secure the 7-5 victory and the 2-0 set lead in the match. Sinner's own injury scare Spelling further trouble for Sinner was a medical break during the second set. Sinner fell awkwardly on his right arm and received treatment on his elbow during the break before returning to play. Sinner was able to keep playing and broke Dimitrov's serve after the medical timeout. He told reporters after the match that he would have an MRI on his elbow on Tuesday to determine the nature of any injury. Sinner is scheduled to play in the quarterfinals on Wednesday. Advertisement Sinner and Dimitrov each held serve in the third set en route to a 2-2 tie before Dimitrov suffered his tournament-ending injury. His retirement marked the latest injury setback for Dimitrov in a career filled with them. More Grand Slam injury heartbreak for Dimitrov Dimitrov most recently retired from the first round of the French Open with a thigh injury while holding a 6-2, 6-3, 2-6 lead over American Ethan Quinn. He retired from Wimbledon in the fourth round in 2024 with an abductor tear. He trailed Daniil Medvedev, 5-3, in the first set at the time of that injury. In between, Dimitrov was forced to retire from the 2024 US Open and 2025 Australian Open. Advertisement After the conclusion of the match, Sinner addressed the Centre Court crowd and Dimitrov's poor injury fortune. "I don't know what to say," Sinner said. "He is an incredible player, I think we all saw this today. He's been so unlucky in the past couple of years. "An incredible player, good friend of mine also. ... Seeing him in this position, it's — honestly. If there would be a chance that he could play in the next round, he would deserve — but now, mostly, I hope he has a speedy recovery. "Very, very unlucky from his side. I don't take this as a win at all. This is just a very unfortunate moment to witness for all of us." Advertisement Sinner advances to face No. 10 seed Ben Shelton in the quarterfinals in search of his first Wimbledon championship. Shelton secured a 3-6, 6-1, 7-6 (1), 7-5 win over unseeded Lorenzo Sonego earlier Monday. For Dimitrov, the retirement marks another in a Grand Slam career filled with them as he continues to seek the first Grand Slam final of his career.

Wimbledon 2025: Novak Djokovic shows immense powers of recovery to down Alex De Minaur and reach last eight
Novak Djokovic may never quite know how he came through on Centre Court against Alex De Minaur, but the beauty of Grand Slam tennis is that he doesn't need to know. His mind switches immediately to the Wimbledon quarter-finals, which he has reached for the 16th time. Here was a four-set match which felt every bit a contest that took five, those present to witness it no doubt fully aware the 34-shot rallies they were watching were far from normal procedure. This was seven-time Wimbledon champion Djokovic being pushed to the absolute brink, and wearing it in his facial expression and body language for much of the ordeal. And then still getting through. Advertisement Djokovic won 1-6 6-4 6-4 6-4 on Monday afternoon but at one time or other appeared to place blame on himself, his opponent, the glare of the sun, the size of the court, and those sat up in his player's box. Even in the three sets he won, things were far from plain sailing. The brutal truth is that as his years tick up and up, this is the sort of match the result of which 38-year-old Djokovic will begin to fall on the wrong side of, in the months and years to come. For now, he still possesses that sixth gear. It has powered him to the last eight and makes him a contender for the title. Roger Federer, holder of a record eight Wimbledon titles to Djokovic's seven, watched on behind his Bond-like sunglasses from the Royal Box. 'It's probably the first time he's watched me and I've won the match,' Djokovic quipped afterwards, the stresses of a fraught match if not fully dissipated then by now mostly alleviated. 'The last couple [he's watched] I've lost!' Advertisement Djokovic waved his arms in frustration and yelled at himself when shots landed out and De Minaur's landed in, and at no time was that truer than in a truly extraordinary first set. Djokovic produced four double faults in his first three service games — one of them the very first point of the match — and had his serve broken three unanswered times as De Minaur raced ahead. For the very first time, Djokovic had lost an opening set at Wimbledon by the bruising scoreline of 6-1. He broke De Minaur's serve for the first time in the very first game of the second set but then had real trouble consolidating it. In fact, after a marathon game that lasted 18 minutes and 53 seconds, De Minaur broke straight back — every single game at this point feeling a monumental signal of the direction of travel the match was set to take from there. Exasperated: Djokovic made no attempt to hide his frustration (AFP via Getty Images) De Minaur, 12 years his opponent's junior, was moving around the court so freely, described by Djokovic later as 'one of the quickest, if not the quickest player, we have on the Tour.' Djokovic, meanwhile, was struggling to clear the net with routine forehand strokes and looked laboured and irritable. Advertisement Each player was then broken in a match lacking anything remotely resembling rhythm, but Djokovic then appeared to wake up momentarily, breaking the 11th seed to love for 4-3. When he saved two break points to serve out to get back on terms at one set all, he let out an almighty roar, as much an effort to rock his opponent further off course from there as a celebration of regaining parity. The decisive break of a very tense and cagey third set again came late on as Djokovic took it 6-4 also, but De Minaur would not go away. He sandwiched a break of the veteran's serve by holding twice himself. He led 4-1 in the fourth. Djokovic's propensity to heave himself back into contention still endures, though, and he had the last laugh at the end of the match's most jaw-dropping rally to break back for 4-3. He held for 4-4, broke for 5-4, served himself into the last eight for 6-4, and just like that De Minaur was out. This is, it turned out, still how it all works. After a song and dance, Djokovic still makes it through in the end. 'I'm still trying to process the whole thing,' said Djokovic afterwards, having plodded over to a microphone by the side of the court. 'It wasn't a great start from me. It was very windy conditions and he was managing the conditions much better. Advertisement 'It was a lot of cat and mouse play. He exposes all your weaknesses. I was very pleased to hang in tough in this one. 'As the match wore on, I was starting to find my forehand and starting to make more winners.' On Wednesday comes a meeting with Italy's Flavio Cobolli for a place in the semi-finals. Weathered and shattered, Djokovic ploughs on.
