Zverev appeared bothered by a knee issue following a slip to the grass on a key point in the third set.<\/p>\n

Sinner\u2019s fifth grand slam title came in his first tournament since a second-round meltdown at the French Open, when he wilted in a Paris heat wave.<\/p>\n

When Sinner ripped a forehand winner up the line on his first match point, the Italian dropped to the grass on his back in celebration.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no better place to play tennis,\u201d Sinner said during the trophy ceremony.<\/p>\n

A year ago, Sinner beat Carlos Alcaraz in the final at the All England Club after wasting three match points against his rival in the Roland Garros final.<\/p>\n

It was Sinner\u2019s 10th straight victory over Zverev, who was coming off his first grand slam title at the French Open.<\/p>\n

Zverev\u2019s previous best performance at Wimbledon was reaching the fourth round three times.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m 29 years old and this is the first time I actually believe I can win this trophy,\u201d Zverev said.<\/p>\n

Prince William joined his wife Kate and two of their children for the final in a star-studded Royal Box that also included actors Dustin Hoffman, Nicole Kidman and Ben Stiller.<\/p>\n
