When Novak Djokovic is slowly retreating as the final torch Big 3, the open new rivalry takes care of the center of attention – Jannik Sinner vs. Carlos Alcaraz. And while both of them are elite, he is a sinner who is often considered to be losers – not because he lacks skill, but because Alcaraz has taken his game to amaze new heights over the last three years.
Since he withdrew his stunning triumph in the US Open 2022 and became the youngest world No. 1, the Spaniard became dominant only and many predicted that he would break a lot of records. Sinner, on the other hand, quietly built his empire – and now follows the rating No. 1 because he has done more than a year.
This Sunday expect that the Court Center will ignite How are they both facing in the final of the men’s single Wimbledon. Only last month turned on the Roland Garrosa Historical five -hour, 53 -minute battle – The longest finals of the French Open Ever and the second longest Grand Slam final of all time, only for the Australian Open Classic 2012.
Sinner is looking for answers
In his battles in his head, Carlos Alcaraz commands 8-4 leadership over Jannik Sinner. And if you narrow the lens to just two years, the numbers will lean even more in favor of Alcaraz – won five directly against Italian. The last time Triumfer Sinner was in the open semifinals in Beijing 2023.
Last month, Sinner inspected the victory in the Epic French Open final and encountered two-set leadership. But Alcaraz, faithful to his war spirit, stood up like Phoenix and turned the match on the head-he played 4-6, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 7-6 in Philippe-Catrier. Defining a moment? Alcaraz saved three points of the match while staring in the fourth set deficit 3-5, 0-40. As he returned from there, there is something he knows.
It is not that Sinner does not question him – he pushed Alcaraz for time and again. But more often than not, the Spaniard found answers. Now, with the title Wimbledon on the line and the World Chart No. 1, Sinner gets another shot to prove that he is more than just a challenge – he is ready to conquer.
Alcaraz in inspiring form
From returning from injuries to Madrid skipping, Carlos Alcaraz has not been unstoppable. He has accumulated 24 consecutive victories, clinted titles at the Italian Open, the French Open and Queen’s Club (HSBC Championships) – and is now one of the victory from the historic three -struggle Wimbledon.
If it downloads, Alcaraz joins the elite legend club – Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic – like the fifth man who will win three direct titles in the All England Club.
In Wimbledon he also runs on 20 matches. And guess who was the last player to beat him there? Jannik Sinner. Their only meeting on the grass came in the 2022 preferences, where Sinner took off Alcaraz in four sets: 6-1, 6-4, 6-7, 6-3.
But quickly and the tables turned. With alcaraz in a sparkling form, it can only hold the edge – although Sinner knows what is needed to defeat it on this surface.
The advantage of Alcaraz on Sunday?
Although Alcaraz has won his last five meetings, he does not take anything to the Wimbledon final for granted. He gained any perceived advantage over his Italian rival and acknowledged that Sinner was a fast student – someone who will undoubtedly bring lessons from their French open clearing to Sunday’s conflict.
“To be honest. Jannik has that he has learned from everything like a huge champion that is from losses. The matches he plays. After every match and simply improves every day,” Alcaraz said at a press conference after defeating Taylor Fritz.
“I’m pretty sure that the French Open finals will take a lot of things. It will be better physically and mentally better. It will be ready on Sunday to give its 100 percent. I don’t think I have a mental advantage because of this match,” Alcaraz added.
For Alcaraz, his last two Wimbledon finals – both against Novaku Djokovic – could not be more different. In 2023 he had to dig deep to survive the five -compiled thriller; In 2024 he dismantled the Serbian legend in direct sets. This year’s final brings a new challenge in Jannik Sinner. And while recent history leans in favor of Alcaraz, Sinner is not a player who should be used easily – not now, never.
