Wimbledon: Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner By The Numbers

by · Forbes

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz are set for another epic clash in the Wimbledon men’s final on Sunday.

The match will begin at 4 p.m. London time – 11 a.m. in New York.

“I think I will give a slight edge to Carlos as a favorite because of the two titles he’s won here and the way he’s playing and the confidence he has right now," 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic told reporters after losing to Sinner, 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 in the semifinals. "But it’s just a slight advantage because Jannik is hitting the ball extremely well. I think it’s going to be again a very close matchup like we had in Paris.”

Here’s a breakdown of this latest Clash of the Titans by the numbers:

8-4: Alcaraz leads Sinner 8-4 in their head-to-head, winning the last five straight.

5:29: Time of their last match, an instant classic in the Roland Garros final where Alcaraz roared back from two sets down to defend his title.

7: This will mark the 7th straight Grand Slam title won by Alcaraz or Sinner.

5: Number of Grand Slam finals won without a loss by both Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek, who faces American Amanda Anisimova in Saturday’s women’s final.
