It marked the fourth Grandslam title for Sinner, who previously struck at the Australian Open from 2024 and 2025 and at the US Open from 2024. Alcaraz lost a match on Wimbledon for the first time against Sinner – then against Sinner. In 2023 and 2024, the 22-year-old Spaniard then took Nofak Djokovic in both years.

Sinner seemed to have the best papers in the first set, but from a 4-2 lead, Alcaraz suddenly thundered over it. With a fantastic backhandlice, the Spaniard completed the opening set. Alcaraz celebrated it extensively, but immediately lost its concentration.
Sinner of course did not give up and grabbed a quick break in the second set. He no longer gave the Italian relief of his parents in the stands. With an amazing Forehand, the number 1 in the world equalized the stand.
Sinner got better and better. In the Royal Box, Richard Krajicek also detected that Alcaraz was able to keep track of the murderous pace of Sinner. The result came at 4-4. Sinner broke the two -time champion and later served a game with a number of devastating stores.
And even in the fourth set, Sinner did not let grass grow over it. With a number of beautiful returns, he immediately grabbed the initiative and the break. Alcaraz still struggled a bit, but with his second match point it was bingo for Sinner.
