Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz resume their rival at the top of tennis in the Wimbledon men’s singles final this afternoon.
World No1 Sinner takes on defending champion Alcaraz a little over a month since their remarkable clash in the French Open final, which lasted a record five hours and 29 minutes and, for the first time, was decided by a tiebreak. Alcaraz saved three match points that day, in a clash many consider among the greatest the sport has ever seen.

That was the first meeting between the pair in a Grand Slam final, and today is the second as fans hope for similar drama in SW19.
Sinner brushed Novak Djokovic aside in straight sets on Friday after seeing Alcaraz reach his third Wimbledon final in a row, after beating Taylor Fritz. He has won the previous two.
"He is the favourite,” Sinner said of Alcaraz. “He won here two times in a row. He's again in the final. It's very tough to beat him on grass but I like these challenges. This is the second consecutive Grand Slam that we are in the final and playing each other, which is great from my side. I believe it's good for the sport."
Asked for his thoughts, Alcaraz replied: "I just hope not to be five hours and a half on court again. But if have to, I will."
Sinner vs Alcaraz start time
The 2025 Wimbledon men’s singles final takes place on Sunday, July 13, 2024, on Centre Court, at Wimbledon.
The match is due to start at 4pm BST, which is a later start than previous years.
All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club (AELTC) president Sally Bolton has confirmed the move was made with the global audience in mind. Pushing the final start time back by two hours means, for example, those on the East Coast of the United States can watch from 11am local time.
