On Sunday, Alexander Zverev will attempt to win his first Wimbledon and second grand slam title when he plays world No 1 Jannik Sinner in the men’s singles final. The 29-year-old German is also bidding to became the first man in the open era to win a second grand slam title immediately after his first, having ended his long wait to win a major crown at last month’s French Open.
After years of trying to break through, Zverev arrives into his first Wimbledon final in the best form of his career, with the powerful world No 2 finally playing the style of aggressive, attacking tennis that many observers in the sport believed his 6ft 6in frame was always capable of producing on Wimbledon’s grass courts. Winning his first grand slam has appeared to have released Zverev, relaxing his shoulders.
