Alcaraz is proud of his grass court season, which has culminated with a Wimbledon final defeat to world number one Sinner.

Top seed Sinner secured a 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 win over second seed Alcaraz, getting his revenge for last month’s French Open final.

The pair have now combined to win each of the last seven Grand Slam titles, continuing their dominance at this level on the ATP Tour.

Rafael Nadal has messaged Sinner and Alcaraz after their latest battle, which took just over three hours at the All England Club.

Indeed, he’s now become the first player born since 1990 to beat multiple reigning champions at Grand Slam singles events, and is the youngest since Novak Djokovic in 2011, as per OptaAce.

But this was very much Sinner’s Wimbledon, with the Italian having been in formidable form for most of the tournament.

Sinner knocked out seven-time Wimbledon champion Djokovic in the semifinals at SW19, before beating two-time defending champion Alcaraz in the final.

Many fans will, however, be sparing a thought for Grigor Dimitrov, who was leading the world number one by two sets before withdrawing hurt from their round of 16 tie.
