The Spaniard takes on Italy’s Sinner in a dream final today, just weeks on from their all-time classic at the French Open.
Alcaraz won that marathon match in Paris and will now be looking to do a double over his rival.
Sinner, meanwhile, is yet to win Wimbledon and will be hoping today is his day to take glory.
But in a change to tradition, the final will get underway later than usual.
When is Wimbledon men’s final?
The Wimbledon men’s singles final will take place today – Sunday, July 13.
It will be held on Centre Court and the action will get going at 4pm UK time.
This is a change from the typical start time for the men’s final at Wimbledon, with it usually being at 2pm.
It has been moved a couple of hours later in the day, allowing the biggest game to have the largest audience worldwide.
The women’s doubles final will now be played before the singles final, starting from 1pm on the same day.
The women’s final between Iga Swiatek and Amanda Anisimova also get underway at 4pm on Saturday.

With the match starting at 4pm there is a real chance the roof on Centre Court could be closed.
Sunset in London is at 9.13pm, so if things go to five sets then the roof might be closed.

Final
Jannik Sinner vs Carlos Alcaraz – Sunday, July 13 – 4pmWimbledon men’s final: What has been said?
The 2025 French Open final between Sinner and Alcaraz last month was a thriller and took 5 hours, 29 minutes to complete.
Alcaraz came out on top from that marathon match and we could be set for another intense encounter at Wimbledon.
The later start time means the roof may have to be closed before the match is done should it go beyond 8pm.
And two-time Wimbledon champion Andy Murray has hit out at the prospect of that happening.
He said: “That’s a big change.
“I think what would be sad about that would be if they had to stop the match to close the roof because of light and stuff.
“It’s not right that I don’t think, but hopefully that doesn’t happen.”
