Jannik Sinner Captures 2025 Wimbledon Crown, Topples Alcaraz in Four Sets
Jannik Sinner lifted the gilded trophy on Centre Court after a three-hour clash that swung on a run of pinpoint returns late in the second set. The 23-year-old Italian, roared on by tricolore flags and chants of “Forza,” avenged last month’s French Open loss to Alcaraz and became the first Italian man to win Wimbledon in the tournament’s 148-year history.
The victory cements Sinner’s hold on the No. 1 ranking and levels his Grand Slam final head-to-head with Alcaraz at two apiece, adding fresh spice to a rivalry many pundits dub the sport’s new Federer-Nadal. It also extends his perfect record in major finals since the 2024 US Open, giving him four titles in five attempts and placing him squarely in the hunt for a calendar-year Slam.
Beyond personal milestones, Sunday’s result slices 2,000 ranking points off Alcaraz’s lead in the ATP Race and jump-starts Italy’s push for year-end No. 1 glory. With the hard-court swing looming and both players healthy, the sport heads into the North American summer with its marquee matchup hotter than ever.
