Djokovic didn't fall in the rankings despite his relatively early exit at Wimbledon, as he was defeated by Sinner in straight sets during the semifinals. It ended his streak of six consecutive appearances in the men's singles final at the All England Club.

In a fitting conclusion, Djokovic was a little more than a spectator as he returned one final serve and stood motionless at the side of the court, Sinner sealing victory with no resistance. There will be no such luxury come Sunday.
