Summary

Jannik Sinner is Wimbledon champion once again! The world No. 1 defeated Alexander Zverev 6-7, 7-6, 6-3, 6-4 in a thrilling four-set final to defend his title. The turning point came when Zverev slipped and appeared to injure his knee in the third set, allowing Sinner to seize control. The Italian kept his composure, sealed his fifth Grand Slam crown, and celebrated by collapsing onto Centre Court in delight. For Zverev, there was still some consolation as he'll rise to world No. 2 despite the defeat. Jean-Emile Jammine speaks with Italian tennis journalist, Ubaldo Scanagatta.
