Jannik Sinner’s coach, Darren Cahill, acknowledged the importance of Sinner breaking his losing streak against Carlos Alcaraz. Sinner defeated Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final with a score of 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. This victory marked Sinner’s first Wimbledon title and fourth Grand Slam title overall.
Overcoming Adversity
Sinner’s Wimbledon win was particularly significant given his recent loss to Alcaraz in the French Open final, where he had squandered three match points. Cahill emphasized that Sinner displayed resilience by not carrying any “baggage” from that defeat. Sinner himself stated that he tried to accept the loss and focus on improvement.
Keys to Victory
Several factors contributed to Sinner’s success at Wimbledon. Cahill noted Sinner’s improved movement on grass, which allowed him to better utilize his power and speed. Sinner also felt comfortable on the court and believed his flat groundstrokes were particularly effective on grass. Sinner’s team devised a strategy to make Alcaraz cover the entire court and disrupt his patterns. Sinner also approached the net more frequently to counter Alcaraz’s drop shots.
