LONDON: World No. 1 Jannik Sinner successfully defended his Wimbledon title on Sunday, defeating Germany’s Alexander Zverev in a thrilling four-set men’s singles final to claim his second consecutive championship at the All England Club.

The Italian star rallied after losing the opening set to secure a 6-7 (7-9), 7-6 (7-2), 6-3, 6-4 victory in a contest that showcased high-quality tennis and resilience from both players.
