After Sinner had won the last point on Sunday, it was Alcaraz taking a walk he had never taken after a Wimbledon final, as the runner-up.

Sinner, the world No. 1, is the first Italian to win on the men's side at Wimbledon and snapped Alcaraz's 20-match streak in London dating back to 2023.

The 22-year-old highlighted the positives of reaching his third consecutive Wimbledon final. Sinner delivered a relentless performance from the second set onward, playing with precision and aggression that gave Alcaraz little time to breathe - literally and figuratively.
