Italy's Jannik Sinner sealed his first victory in the men's singles tennis final at Wimbledon on Sunday against Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz.
Sinner needed three hours and four minutes to beat two-time defending champion Alcaraz in four sets (4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4).
The 23-year-old, who reached the Wimbledon final after his victory against Novak Djokovic, is already the first Italian to be ranked as the world's No. 1 in men's singles by the ATP.
Sunday's match came just five weeks after the pair played an epic match to determine the French Open champion, which Alcaraz won after saving three match points in a 5-hour, 29-minute match — the longest French Open final in history.
"I had a very tough loss in Paris. But it doesn't really matter how you win or lose the important
tournaments, you just have to understand what you did wrong, try to work on that," Sinner said after the match during an on-court interview.
"This is for sure one of the reasons why I'm holding this trophy. I'm very happy that I held my nerves. It's an amazing feeling," he added.
This title marks a fourth Grand Slam singles title for the No. 1-ranked Sinner, adding to two Australian Opens and a US Open.
