The top seed sealed the sole break of the third set before he raced into an unassailable 4-0 lead in the fourth to force a decider. Despite a couple of magic moments in the third set from Sinner — the Italian capped an epic point with a backhand lob in the seventh game and fended off a set point for the Serbian with a stunning angled retrieval of a Djokovic drop shot —Djokovic’s groundstrokes clicked into gear. Djokovic had started confidently on Centre Court as he broke Sinner’s serve on the way to a 4-1 lead early.

That includes a 10-1 mark in matches that go the distance at Wimbledon, including nine straight victories; the lone loss came way back in 2006. A lot about his history of overcoming that sort of deficit. A lot about his ability to adjust, to adapt, to right himself quickly.

In the third set, Djokovic took advantage of Sinner's numerous unforced errors, sprinting out to a 4-1 lead and finishing off the set with a service winner to get back into the match. The tournament's No. 1 seed and three-time defending champion, who is ranked third in the ATP rankings, Djokovic finished off the comeback when another one of Sinner's forehand errors ended it in a match that took three hours and 35 minutes. Sinner, the 20-year-old from Italy, appearing in his first Wimbledon quarterfinal, got off to a slow start and found himself down 3-0 before making a comeback to take the first set that took nearly an hour to complete and continued to cruise after winning the last four games in the second.

The defending champion Novak Djokovic gave himself a 'pep talk' before reeling off three sets in a row to reach the Wimbledon semi-finals with victory over ...

I had a little refreshment and a little pep talk in the mirror. True to his pedigree, Djokovic wound up the show with the sort of commanding presence he has brought to his tennis since he entered the Tour 19 years and 20 majors ago. Yet, until the closing stages, there was little between them, apart from 15 years’ of elite experience and 82 titles.

It's getting to the point where whenever Novak Djokovic gets down two sets at a Grand Slam, he'll be an even bigger favorite than he was at the start of a ...

You can fire everything at him with everything you have for as long as you can, and when the dust clears he’s still there, right where he was, dusting off his shoulder. While coming back from two sets down sounds and looks like a major turn around and turning a match upside down, for Djokovic it’s merely a minor adjustment of the dials.

The look of lethargy shouldn’t have fooled us, and perhaps Sinner knew what was coming as even though he was playing incredibly well, he got nervy in the third set. For the seventh time in his career, Djokovic pulled off the feat yesterday at Wimbledon, hoodwinking future star Jannik Sinner into the impostor of hope before yanking it away in a 5-7 2-6 6-3 6-2 6-2 advancement to the semifinals.
