The match started with a tense situation when all 3 showed high performance. Sinner won an early break in the 5th game thanks to his impressive return of the ball. However, Alcaraz quickly proved his class with his versatile playing style and uncompromising fighting spirit, regaining the game and winning 6-4 in the opening set.
Entering set 2, Sinner showed a reasonable adjustment in tactics. He was more proactive in the long-lasting plays, taking full advantage of the gaps from the opponent to win an early break, then maintained the advantage to equalize 1-1 with the same score of 6-4.
Set 3 marked Alcaraz's decline, as the Spaniard showed his impatience, constantly breaking his own rules and losing control at key moments. On the contrary, Sinner maintained his alertness, won a break in the hill game and closed the set with the second consecutive win 6-4.
Despite his best efforts in the final set, Alcaraz continued to lose the break early. The world No. 3 had a chance to take a 40-15 lead in the 7th game, but Sinner excellently saved 2 break-points to keep the ball in hand. From there, he headed straight to a 6-4 victory, ending the match after more than 3 hours of competition.
This victory helped Jannik Sinner become the first person to defeat Alcaraz in a Grand Slam final, and ended his opponent's ambition to be crowned Wimbledon for the third consecutive time.
