LONDON — Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are gearing up to compete for the Wimbledon title, just five weeks after their thrilling face-off in the French Open finale.

This Sunday, at Centre Court, the world No. 1 Sinner and No. 2 Alcaraz will make history by meeting in the final matches on both the clay courts of Roland-Garros and the grass of the All England Club within the same year, an occurrence last seen with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal in the years 2006, 2007, and 2008.

In the French Open, 22-year-old Spaniard Alcaraz managed to overcome the 22-year-old Italian Sinner in a grueling five-set encounter, lasting 5 hours and 29 minutes in Paris on June 8, after coming back from two sets down and saving three match points en route to victory.

That made Alcaraz 5-0 in Grand Slam finals, including victories in 2023 and 2024 at Wimbledon.

He also carries a career-best 24-match winning streak into Sunday and has beaten Sinner five times in a row.

Sinner owns three major trophies and will be playing in his fourth consecutive Slam final – but first at the All England Club.

He won the U.S. Open last September and the Australian Open this January.

Sinner has been wearing tape and an arm sleeve to protect his right elbow since falling in the opening game of his fourth-round win on Monday. After eliminating 24-time major champion Novak Djokovic in the semifinals, Sinner said he doesn’t think his elbow will be an issue on Sunday.

Play is scheduled to begin Sunday at 4 p.m. local time, which is 11 a.m. ET.

Sinner was listed Saturday as the slight money-line favorite at -110 by BetMGM Sportsbook, with Alcaraz at -105.
