Jannik Sinner beats Alcaraz,wins first Wimbledon title

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner claimed his maiden Wimbledon title on Sunday with a hard-fought 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 victory over defending champion and rival Carlos Alcaraz, reversing the outcome of their epic French Open final just five weeks ago. With this win, the 23-year-old Italian secured his fourth Grand Slam title, narrowing the gap with World No. 2 Alcaraz, who has five major titles.
The triumph at Centre Court marked a significant breakthrough for Sinner, who ended Alcaraz’s five-match winning streak against him, including a dramatic Roland-Garros final where Sinner had held match points but faltered. On Sunday, however, Sinner held his nerve and capitalised on crucial moments, halting the 22-year-old Spaniard’s 24-match unbeaten run and his 20-match streak at Wimbledon that featured back-to-back final wins against Novak Djokovic in 2023 and 2024.

The high-intensity showdown saw both players displaying dazzling shot-making and athleticism, but it was Sinner who maintained greater consistency across the final three sets. Alcaraz, who had been flawless in major finals with a 5-0 record before this match, struggled to match Sinner’s composure in key games.
