WIMBLEDON, London — Defending champion Jannik Sinner retained his Wimbledon 2026 men's singles crown on Sunday, defeating Germany's Alexander Zverev 6–7(7–9), 7–6(7–2), 6–3, 6–4 in the final, according to results published by olympics.com and cross-checked against Wikipedia's official draw.
The Italian world No. 1's victory on 12 July gave him a second consecutive Wimbledon title and a fifth Grand Slam crown overall. Zverev, the 2026 runner-up, became the first man born in the 1990s to reach the final of all four majors, and only the fifth man in the Open Era to finish runner-up at each, Wikipedia reported.
In the ladies' final on 11 July, the Czech Republic's Linda Nosková claimed her maiden Grand Slam title with a 6–2, 5–7, 6–3 win over compatriot Karolína Muchová. At 21 years and 236 days, Nosková is the youngest Wimbledon champion since Petra Kvitová in 2011, according to the same source.
The results close the grass-court Grand Slam season and turn attention to the North American hard-court swing ahead of the 2026 US Open.
