By Martyn Herman LONDON (Reuters) -Top seed Jannik Sinner ensured Novak Djokovic will be absent from a Wimbledon men's singles final for the first time in eight years after handing the Serbian great a brutal Centre Court battering on Friday.

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner dismantled Novak Djokovic in straight sets, 6‑3, 6‑3, 6‑4, to claim his first Wimbledon final berth and, in doing so, halted Djokovic’s run of six consecutive appearances in this championship match.

Tennis fans haven't seen the last of Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon based on his comments following a semifinal loss to world No. 1 Jannik Sinner at the All England Club in London on Friday.
