The last 4 standing: Statistics rundown

The top 3 seeds reach the semis (what's Ruud doing up there anyway?); the 4 pre-tournament betting favorites reach the semis. What's more can you ask for?

Is this semi line-ups the best since '12 AO where the Big4 all made it?

Well one sweet day... Djokovic aint winning when he is 80y old :X3:.

Even Nishikori could do it, although only once...

Semi-Pro
With a day and half to go until the blockbuster SFs goes under way, lets take a look at how the statistics look in some of the major categories:

Djokovic, just like at RG, is blasting winners (210 in 5 matches) all over the place and leads this stat comprehensively over his rivals. But his return % is I would guess at an all time low at just 18% return games won. His serving has been at times unbelieveable, and holds 96% of his service games. He is also challenging some of the worlds best servers in terms of aces. He has only been broken 3 times all tournament. Sinner on the other hand is at an unreal 34% return games won on grass. He does have one of the best returns in the world, even though the average rank of his opponent has been 78 or something like that, this is still impressive. Broken his opponents serves 26 times, highest in the tournament. In comparison Alcaraz has broken serve 20 times, Medvedev 21 and Djokovic only 18 times.

Djokovic leads the tournament as well in terms of the least unforced errors, at just 97 mistakes. Impressive. 210 winners and 97 UEs is mighty.

Medvedev is at a 90% hold rate, lowest of them all wich is a surprise considering his big serve, but still 90% is a really good hold rate on grass. Compared to his other 3 rivals, his game off the ground hasn't been as steady. 115 unforced errors and we gotta remember he played an injured opponent in R4 who retired.

Alcaraz has been steady all round but what impresses the most is his hold rate. Staggering 95%, only been broken 4 times.

Some more stats by @Spin Diesel

Medvedev played 1039 points and won 563 = 54% and ran 15800m
Alcaraz played 1110 points and won 611 = 55% and ran 15400m
Djokovic played 1047 points and won 577 = 55% and ran 15700m
Sinner played 930 points and won 532 = 57% and ran 12300m

Thoughts, TTW?

all the stats taken from Wimbledons official website.
I have to think those return stats are skewed because Joker played servebot Hubi

Anyone with any sort of objectivity has to at least admit that this will be intriguing and the outcome is not NID. These stats show that they have all performed about equally as well this tournament, with Medvedev being slightly behind the other 3 and Sinner probably having stats inflated due to a weaker draw.

Nice stats, OP! Didn’t see this until now.

What’s the benefit of dominance ratio over points won? Alcaraz and Djokovic have almost identical points won ratios but Novak a considerably higher dominance ratio. Is it just because he holds serve more efficiently?

Yes. DR is slightly skewed towards better serving.
