Rising star Jannik Sinner produced an impressive all-round display to see off fifth seed Carlos Alcaraz and reach the Wimbledon quarter-finals.

He served and returned superbly to triumph 6-1 6-4 6-7 (8-10) 6-3.

Sinner could face Novak Djokovic next, if the top seed gets past Tim van Rijthoven in his fourth-round match.

The defending champion and the Dutch world number 104 meet in the final match of the day on Centre Court.

On this evidence, Sinner will be a tough opponent for anyone at these Championships.

His big serve gave him a solid foundation and some fierce returns from either flank put him in control against Alcaraz early on.

The highly rated Spanish teenager still put in a typically tenacious performance and saved two match points in the third-set tie-break, which he eventually won 10-8.

Sinner seemed to lose confidence at the start of the fourth set, but he soon recovered his composure and held his nerve too, saving three break points from 0-40 to move 4-1 up.

Alcaraz did not give up, and saved three more match points before Sinner finally found a way to finish off a compelling encounter and reach the quarter-finals at the All England Club for the first time.

In the same half of the draw, Belgium's David Goffin edged a thriller with 23rd seed Francis Tiafoe, beating the American 7-6 (7-3) 5-7 5-7 6-4 7-5 after more than four and a half hours on court.

Goffin, who last reached the quarter-finals at SW19 in 2019, will play Britain's Cameron Norrie in the last eight.
