Wimbledon never fails to appear on the calendar, and Patrick Mouratoglou doesn't either. The third Grand Slam of the year is just around the corner, bringing with it the always controversial opinion of the French coach, who never hesitates to speak his mind and above all, does not care about the criticism he may receive. So, under these circumstances, the Frenchman has posted a video on his Instagram choosing his three contenders to lift the title on July 12th.

The show in London will begin on June 29 in a tournament known for surprises, although not as many plot twists are expected as those experienced in Roland Garros , without Carlos Alcaraz due to injury and with Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic out of action before the end of the first week.

Why does Patrick Mouratoglou choose these three players as favorites for Wimbledon 2026?

However, that hasn't made Mouratoglou hesitate in his choice. He is clear about his three picks for the London Grand Slam. The first is without a doubt Novak Djokovic. "For the last 10 years, Djokovic hasn't lost at Wimbledon to anyone other than Alcaraz or Sinner, except perhaps in 2017, but he retired during the match. Novak has a slight advantage: grass is probably his best surface. There are fewer long rallies than on clay, and you have more opportunities to end points sooner."

But the events in Paris have forced him to include Alexander Zverev in his list. The German is the reigning champion of Roland Garros, although he has never been able to showcase his best form on the grass of Wimbledon, where his best result has been reaching the fourth round on three occasions. "I would say that Zverev also now has a slight advantage, having won Roland Garros, but I don't think what happened at Roland Garros will affect the performance or confidence of Jannik Sinner."

Pay attention to these statements by Mouratoglou. He says tennis is in DANGER ‼️

This is where Mouratoglou places his bet firmly on his top favorite, Jannik Sinner. Despite the major surprise of his second-round exit at Roland Garros against Juan Manuel Cerúndolo , due to heatstroke and cramps, the defending champion and world number one is highly likely to retain the title, especially with the absence of Alcaraz.

“Look at what he has achieved since January: the number of consecutive Masters 1000 matches he has won is incredible. So he will be the top favorite. Being the defending champion always adds extra pressure, but I believe Jannik is very accustomed to that kind of pressure. He is the clear favorite and I think he is in the best position to win the title,” concludes Patrick Mouratoglou , who, while not taking a big risk with his prediction, knows that his bet is a winner.
