In his fifth Olympic Games, Novak Djokovic has finally reached the last round.
Despite feeling pain in his surgically repaired knee, the 37-year-old showed few struggles with court movement, defeating Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets on Friday.
Before he can claim gold, though, he must face his biggest nemesis in recent years: Carlos Alcaraz, the Spaniard who has defeated him in back-to-back years at the Wimbledon final.
Their next battle is for more than just bragging rights; indeed, history is on the line.
At 37 years old, Djokovic would become the oldest male Olympic tennis champion.
