The dream of a 25th major slam title is still alive as Serbia's Novak Djokovic is all set to take on Italy's Flavio Cobolli at the Centre Court on Wednesday (July 9) in the Wimbledon 2025 quarterfinals. Djokovic, a seven-time champion has been hunting for the record-breaking slam, but has fallen short of the quest since winning the 2023 US Open. So ahead of Djokovic's quarterfinal match against Cobolli, here is all you need to know including preview, head-to-head and other key details.
Novak Djokovic vs Flavio Cobolli Preview
Djokovic has been showing his class and temperament throughout Wimbledon 2025 as he bids to reach a seventh consecutive men's singles final. After strong wins against Daniel Evans and Miomir Kecmanovic, he faced a tough challenge in the Round of 16 from Australia's Alex De Minaur.
Minaur stunned everyone by dominating the first set 6-1. But Djokovic, known for his fighting spirit, bounced back and took the lead 2-1 at the end of third set. Even when Novak was down a break in the fourth set, he held his nerves and wrapped up the match in four sets, proving why he’s one of the best.
On the other side, Flavio Cobolli is having a breakthrough year. He fought his way to the SW19 quarterfinals by beating tough opponents like Jacub Mensik and former US open champion (2014) Marin Cilic. It has been a special 2025 for Cobolli as he won his first ATP title (Tiriac Open) in Bucharest and then pulled off the biggest win of his career by defeating Russia's Andre Rublev in Hamburg. Reaching the Wimbledon last eight is already the best performance of his career.
