The much-anticipated encounter will begin not before 4:00 p.m. local time (11:00 a.m. ET or 8:30 p.m. IST) on Sunday, July 13, on Centre Court, following the women’s doubles final earlier in the afternoon, as per a report by Olympic.
Sinner Eyes Wimbledon Glory in Breakthrough Year
For World No. 1 Jannik Sinner, the upcoming final marks his maiden appearance in a Wimbledon championship match and a potential career milestone — a first title on grass and a fourth Grand Slam overall. The Italian has already tasted major success in 2025, having lifted the Australian Open title earlier in January.
Sinner’s path to the final included a commanding semifinal victory over tennis great Novak Djokovic, solidifying his grass-court credentials. Having previously fallen to Alcaraz in clay-court finals this season, the 23-year-old Italian now aims to reverse his fortunes on the iconic grass of SW19.
Despite having dropped only one set en route to the final during a rain-affected match with Grigor Dimitrov, Sinner has displayed exceptional consistency, poise, and power.
Alcaraz Chases Rare Wimbledon Hat-Trick
Meanwhile, Carlos Alcaraz, currently ranked World No. 2, enters the final as the reigning champion. The Spaniard is seeking his third straight Wimbledon crown, a feat only four men have accomplished in the Open Era, including legends like Bjorn Borg and Roger Federer.
Alcaraz reached Sunday’s final after a composed four-set win over Taylor Fritz in the semifinals, extending his Wimbledon winning streak to 20 matches and maintaining his unbeaten record in Grand Slam finals, currently standing at five out of five.
At just 22, Alcaraz is attempting further to cement his place in the sport’s history books and solidify his dominance on grass. His grit was tested earlier in the tournament, notably in a five-set battle against Fabio Fognini, but he has continued to rise to the occasion, displaying the kind of versatility and resilience associated with great champions.
Rivalry Renewed: Sinner vs Alcaraz, Part II
The Wimbledon 2025 final marks the ninth career meeting between Sinner and Alcaraz in official ATP matchups. The Spaniard holds the edge in their rivalry this season, having beaten Sinner in both their prior finals — on clay — including the recent French Open, where he saved three match points to clinch a dramatic win.
However, Sinner’s lone Wimbledon victory over Alcaraz came in 2022, offering a glimmer of confidence as he seeks to end his five-match losing streak against the Spanish powerhouse. Importantly, even a loss on Sunday will not affect Sinner’s World No. 1 status.
Speaking ahead of the final, Sinner noted, “After Roland-Garros, I worked even harder to improve as a player. Regardless of Sunday’s result, I know I’ve evolved.”
