The top two players in the world, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic, will face off in the Wimbledon 2023 gentlemen's singles final on Sunday.
While it is the first Wimbledon final for World No 1 Alcaraz, Djokovic is a seven-time champion at the grasscourt major. This will be Djokovic's fifth final in a row and the Serb will be looking to join the elite club of Bjorn Borg and Roger Federer, as the only men to win five titles on the trot at the Championships.

Along with the trophy, the winner of the Wimbledon final will also be crowned the No 1 in the world.
"It gives you extra motivation. I think it's more special to play a final against a legend from our sport," Alcaraz said of the matchup. "If I win, it could be amazing for me. Not only to win a Wimbledon title but to do it against Novak would be super special."
The Spaniard won his first Grand Slam at the 2022 US Open.
Meanwhile, Djokovic is a 23-time major champion. He is the most decorated men's Grand Slammer and is level with Serena Williams for the most singles majors in the Open Era. The all-time record belongs to Margaret Court, who has 24 singles Grand Slam titles to her name.
