Jannik Sinner overcame a tricky start to his Wimbledon campaign before emerging victorious once again.
When Sinner trailed Miomir Kecmanovic by two sets to one in the first round, it seemed unlikely that Sinner would produce the form required to defend his Wimbledon title.
However, the Italian overcame the challenge of Kecmanovic and continued to improve with every passing round.
Sinner truly burst into life in the semi-finals, producing an astounding level of play to defeat Novak Djokovic in straight sets.
His play continued to blossom in the final, catapulting him to a 6-7, 7-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory over Alexander Zverev.

Sinner has achieved the vast majority of his success on the Tour under the guidance of coaches Darren Cahill and Simone Vagnozzi.

Cahill had planned to step away from Sinner’s coaching team at the end of 2025. However, he has since decided to elongate his stay in the Italian’s camp until the end of 2026.
“I’m here until the end of 2026, and then we’ll see,” Cahill said in his Wimbledon post-final press conference. “I did say I was finished at the end of 2025. I turned around and changed my mind.
“No, we’ll get through to the end of the year. We’ll sit down as a team and talk about what is best for Jannik.”
