It is time for the battle for the title at Wimbledon 2026. The world No. 1 Jannik Sinner will be up against the second seed Alexander Zverev in the men’s singles final today, Sunday, July 12 on the Centre Court. As a matter of fact, this marks the first time in their careers that these two rivals will clash on a grass court.
Defending champion Jannik Sinner entered the tournament as the top seed and cruised past Miomir Kecmanovic, Jenson Brooksby, Shintaro Mochizuki, and Jan-Lennard Struff. In the semi-finals, the Italian registered a straight-sets victory (6-4, 6-4, 6-4) over seven-time tournament champion Novak Djokovic to reach his second consecutive Wimbledon final. Â
On the other hand, the second seed Alexander Zverev advanced to his maiden All England Club final following victories over Alexander Blockx, Valentin Royer, Marcos Giron, and Jiri Lehecka. The newly crowned French Open champion defeated Taylor Fritz in the quarter-finals and subsequently ended the run of British wildcard Arthur Fery (7-6, 6-2, 6-4) in the semi-finals, leaving him one victory away from a back-to-back Grand Slam title.
