Jannik Sinner wins his second consecutive Wimbledon men’s singles title after defeating Alexander Zverev in the final on July 12. Multiple reports say the match ends with Sinner coming through in four sets, including a win in the third and fourth sets after losing a tiebreaker earlier. The victory extends Sinner’s head-to-head winning run against Zverev to 10 straight matches, according to coverage.
After the match, Zverev speaks during the trophy presentation and makes a lighthearted comment to Sinner, joking that he no longer “really” likes him anymore. The remark is widely shared online and is described as reflecting sportsmanship despite the defeat.
Sinner’s win is reported as his fifth Grand Slam singles title, with coverage also characterizing the performance as a strong comeback. Even with the loss, Zverev is set to move up in the ATP rankings and is expected to reach world number two. One outlet also notes that Carlos Alcaraz drops in the rankings due to missing tournaments while dealing with injury-related absence.
