WIMBLEDON, London — Defending champion Jannik Sinner retained the Wimbledon 2026 gentlemen's singles title on Sunday, beating Germany's Alexander Zverev 6–7(7–9), 7–6(7–2), 6–3, 6–4 in the final at the All England Club, according to BBC Sport. It was the Italian's second Wimbledon crown and fifth Grand Slam title overall.
Sinner, the top seed, lost the opening set on a tie-break but recovered to control the match, the BBC reported. Zverev, 28, became the first man born in the 1990s to reach the final of all four majors, and the first German to contest the Wimbledon final since Boris Becker in 1995, Wikipedia noted.
In the women's singles, Czech Republic's Linda Nosková defeated compatriot Karolína Muchová 6–2, 5–7, 6–3 on Saturday to claim her first major, the BBC and Wikipedia confirmed.
