Novak Djokovic's route to yet another French Open semi-final has been as serene as Alcaraz's. Motivation isn't exactly hard to come by Alcaraz is going for his first French title, while also trying to keep mentor and compatriot Rafael Nadal tied with his opponent on a joint-record 22 Grand Slam men's singles titles.

The Spaniard is the youngest-ever world number one, won his first Grand Slam at last year's US Open, and announced himself to the wider tennis world at Roland Garros last year before falling to Alexander Zverev in the quarter-finals.
