Jannik Sinner has won his first Grand Slam of the season and the fifth of his career at Wimbledon 2026, where he had an outstanding match against Alexander Zverev to bounce back from the hard blow of falling in the second round of Roland Garros. During the trophy ceremony, the world number 1 praised the excellent game played by the German tennis player and made it clear that he sees him as a serious threat to snatch the ATP ranking throne.

"Zverev, you have just achieved your Grand Slam dream at Roland Garros, and I am sure that if you play like today, you will win more and continue to fulfill your goals. Besides, you also aim to be number 1 and now you are very close, I have to be careful -laughs-. We both started off very well, serving very fast. I have to thank my team for the work, my family, and my mother who left the court a couple of times during the final. 'Sascha' and I gave our all today, I am very happy with the level of both. There is no better place to play tennis than this one, and you never know how many more finals you will play here. This tournament is very special, so thank you very much," said Sinner.

3,970 points separate Zverev from the number 1 spot

The reality is that the gap between the two players is 3,970 points in the ATP rankings, so Zverev would have to work hard to become the world number 1 in the short term. However, the Italian tennis player defends a large number of points between now and the end of the season, so any setback could give 'Sascha' a boost. So far, Alexander has already surpassed Carlos Alcaraz to take the number two spot, and he is at the peak of his career, so in the coming months, he could make a strong move towards his goals.
