Jannik Sinner looked in danger of surrendering his Wimbledon crown after losing a tightly contested first-set tie-break to Alexander Zverev on Centre Court. Less than three hours later, however, the world No. 1 had turned the match around, recovering to win 6-7(7), 7-6(2), 6-3, 6-4 and successfully defend his title.
The victory secured Sinner's second consecutive Wimbledon championship and his fifth Grand Slam singles title, further strengthening his position at the top of the men's game. It also capped another remarkable display of composure from the Italian, who refused to abandon his game plan after falling behind early in the final.
