Jannik Sinner enters the Wimbledon final in top form after dominating 24-time major champion Novak Djokovic in straight sets.
The world No. 1 delivered a serving masterclass, winning 88 percent of his first-serve points while limiting the sport’s greatest returner to just one break point opportunity.
Then, there was his signature consistency.
Sinner committed just 15 unforced errors, seamlessly moving Djokovic side-to-side with his blistering baseline aggression.
The 24-year-old enters the final as a firm favorite against an opponent he’s quite familiar with.
Since losing four of their first five battles, Sinner has won nine consecutive matches and 14 straight sets against Alexander Zverev.
However, Zverev might enter this matchup more comfortable than ever.
This is their first meeting since Zverev captured his maiden major title at the 2026 French Open.
Zverev is 0-6 against world No. 1s in Grand Slams, often struggling with nerves and passivity in critical moments.
However, in the past two weeks, he’s made significant progress on the grass, dominating on serve and displaying increased aggression, especially on the forehand, where he has typically been vulnerable.
The 29-year-old German can win a set and force a few tie-breakers.
However, considering Sinner’s recent win over Djokovic, Zverev will need a near-herculean performance and a massive dip in Sinner’s form to pull off the improbable.
Prediction: No. 1 Jannik Sinner def. No. 2 Alexander Zverev in 4 sets
