Alcaraz has dropped sets in three of his four wins in these Championships but is still through to the last-eight

Rublev started aggressively as Alcaraz tried to find a rhythm, but couldn't keep that approach going while the defending Wimbledon champ righted himself.

Carlos Alcaraz cruised into the quarterfinals of the Wimbledon 2025 by defeating Andrey Rublev in a hard-fought game. The round of 16 game played at the Centre Court, lived up to its hype as a blockbuster with Rublev beating the defending champion in the first set. However, Alcaraz made a comeback and registered a win by 6 (5)-7 (7), 6-3, 6-4, 6-4.
