Carlos Alcaraz faced some challenges on Friday at Wimbledon, but he managed to extend his career-best winning streak to 21 matches. The Spaniard narrowly defeated Fabio Fognini in five sets during the first round and encountered difficulties against big-hitting German Jan-Lennard Struff in the third round on Centre Court.

Alcaraz’s unseeded opponent was ranked 125th in the world and was competing in the Wimbledon third round for the fourth time, having never gone beyond. The Spaniard ensured the wait continues for the 35-year-old, who was a 2018 Australian Open doubles semi-finalist.
