After an early exit at the French Open, the Italian skipped the traditional grass-court tune-up events, instead choosing to prepare at the All England Club with the goal of becoming the first man since Novak Djokovic to successfully defend the Wimbledon title.

Sinner’s title defense got off to a dramatic start in the opening round. Facing Miomir Kecmanović on Centre Court, he rallied from two sets to one down to earn a hard-fought 4-6, 6-3, 6-7(6), 6-2, 6-3 victory despite suffering a minor foot injury and taking an awkward fall during the match. The four-time Grand Slam champion showed the resilience that has become a hallmark of his game, extending his Grand Slam win total to 94, matching the record for an Italian player, and advancing to face Nuno Borges in the second round.

While the opener exposed some rust after not playing a grass-court tournament beforehand, it also reinforced why Sinner remains the man to beat. His powerful baseline game, improved movement on grass, and ability to raise his level in pressure moments make him one of the strongest contenders for the 2026 Wimbledon crown. If he continues to sharpen his form through the early rounds, Sinner has the opportunity to join an exclusive group of back-to-back Wimbledon champions.
