Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz will meet in the Wimbledon final, having only just played out the French Open final.<\/p>\n

Sinner has been tipped to win Wimbledon<\/a>, with the Italian having lost to the Spaniard in that Roland Garros final last month.<\/p>\n

But Andy Roddick thinks Alcaraz is the favourite to win Wimbledon<\/a>, which would represent a sixth Grand Slam title for the 22-year-old.<\/p>\n

Alcaraz<\/a> has won all five of his career Grand Slam finals so far, while 23-year-old Sinner<\/a> has won three and lost one ahead of the Wimbledon<\/a> final.<\/p>\n

But the Italian top seed does sit number one in the ATP<\/a> rankings going into the match, with second seed Alcaraz in second.<\/p>\n

The pair have met 12 times in their stunning careers so far, with Alcaraz boasting an 8-4 win-loss record over Sinner.<\/p>\n

And the winner of their next meeting has now been predicted by legendary figures Jim Courier<\/a> and Lindsay Davenport<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Courier commented on Tennis Channel: \u201cI\u2019m going with the fellow ginger. I\u2019m taking Jannik Sinner in this one.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the speedy court is going to help him a little bit more than it\u2019s going to really help Alcaraz. I think he\u2019ll be able to neutralize all the options that Carlos brings to the table.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I\u2019m picking Sinner, and that means Lindsay Davenport, you are up against it because you probably have to go the other way don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n

Replying, Davenport said: \u201cYeah, I\u2019ll go Alcaraz. Won the last five [versus Sinner]. Won Wimbledon a number of times. I\u2019m just feeling it, and I have to go against Jim.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz routes to Wimbledon final<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a tricky Wimbledon for both players, who entered the event under plenty of pressure after their thrilling French Open final.<\/p>\n

They battled it out for almost five-and-a-half hours at Roland Garros, in what will go down as one of the greatest matches ever.<\/p>\n
