Alcaraz survives Rublev test, rolls on at Wimbledon
Briefly

Carlos Alcaraz's Wimbledon performance included a dropped set but led to a comeback victory over Andrey Rublev. He won 6-7 (5), 6-3, 6-4, 6-4, and extended his grass-court winning streak to 18 matches. This victory marked his 75th major match win, equaling Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe's record. Notable moments included fending off a break chance in the third set and executing a brilliant cross-court winner. Moving forward, Alcaraz will face Cam Norrie in the quarterfinals.
Alcaraz stretched his winning streak in the grass-court Grand Slam tournament to 18 matches and his current unbeaten run across all events to 22.
After eventually holding to 3-all, Alcaraz earned his own break opportunity and didn't let Rublev escape, executing a stunning cross-court forehand winner.
I always said that it's just about belief in yourself. It doesn't matter that you are one-set-to-love down. One point can change the match completely.
