Sinner dethrone Alcaraz to win Wimbledon title

World No.1 Sinner came through four sets, three hours and a spellbinding final to beat his rival Alcaraz in the men's singles final of the Championships 2025.

Sinner could not believe what he had just accomplished.

The Italian tennis titan stretched his arms out to the sky as he was crowned men’s singles champion of Wimbledon 2025, dethroning two-time reigning champion and world No.2 Carlos Alcaraz 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 on Sunday (13 July).

This is Sinner’s first Grand Slam outside of the hard-court Slams, the fourth major title of the 23-year-old’s stellar career.

He becomes the first Italian singles player to win at the All England Lawn Tennis Club, making it through to the championship in three hours and four minutes.

“It feels emotional because only me and the people who are close to me know exactly what we have been through on and off the court, and it has been everything except easy,” said Sinner to the media, among them Olympics.com, in his winner’s press conference.

“We've tried to push, you know, every practice session, even I was struggling at times mentally”.

“Maybe even more in practice sessions because I feel like when I play the match, I can switch off and just play. I believe that this helped me a lot.”

From February to May 2025, Sinner served a doping ban in a settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency.

Now, just 35 days after the respective world No.1 and No.2 players played out a five-and-a-half-hour classic in the Roland-Garros final, Sinner has exacted his revenge with a thrilling victory on Centre Court.
