World No. 1 Jannik Sinner will take on defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in a blockbuster men’s singles final at Wimbledon 2025 on Sunday night. The high-stakes match promises an electrifying showdown as the Italian aims to stop Alcaraz from claiming a historic third consecutive Wimbledon title.
Sinner, 23, has enjoyed a dominant run at this year’s Grand Slam, dropping just two sets en route to the final. The top seed stormed past Novak Djokovic in straight sets in the semi-final, underlining his title credentials. He also lifted the Australian Open trophy earlier this year and now eyes his second Grand Slam title of 2025.
Standing in his way is 22-year-old Carlos Alcaraz, the current World No. 2 and Olympic silver medallist. The Spaniard edged past American fifth seed Taylor Fritz in the semis and is chasing his sixth career Grand Slam title. A win on Sunday would see him join an elite club of men, Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic, who have won three or more consecutive Wimbledon titles in the Open Era.
