Jannik Sinner Vs Carlos Alcaraz Wimbledon 2025 Final Live: History On The Line
Alcaraz and Sinner have dominated recent Grand Slams, sharing seven of the last eight titles and splitting the six since the start of 2024. Their rivalry has captured the tennis world's attention in the era following Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic.
Alcaraz is known for his flamboyant play, endearing him to the Centre Court crowd, while Sinner, the world number one, is often compared to Djokovic for his efficiency and precision. Alcaraz, the two-time defending Wimbledon champion, is slightly favoured but must perform at his best to overcome Sinner.
Jannik Sinner Vs Carlos Alcaraz: Head-To-Head
The Spanish world number two has an 8-4 record against his Italian rival, having won their last five encounters, including a remarkable comeback in the French Open final, where he saved three match points. Alcaraz, on a career-best 24-match winning streak, is unbeaten at Wimbledon since 2022. However, Sinner, who defeated Alcaraz in the fourth round three years ago, will draw confidence from that victory.
Despite beating fifth seed Taylor Fritz in the semi-finals, Alcaraz does not believe his Paris comeback gives him a mental edge. Both players showed vulnerabilities en route to the final. Alcaraz was pushed to five sets by Fabio Fognini and dropped sets in three other matches. Sinner, 23, faced a scare when Grigor Dimitrov retired while leading in the fourth round, but later defeated 10th seed Ben Shelton and outplayed an under-performing Djokovic in the semi-finals.
Alcaraz aims to join the elite group of players who have won Wimbledon three consecutive times, including Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Federer, and Djokovic. Sinner, the reigning US Open and Australian Open champion, has been in stellar form since returning in May from a three-month doping ban and poses a significant challenge to Alcaraz's aspirations.

Motor racing-Brown hails McLaren's 200th win as close to perfect
By Alan Baldwin HT Image BUDAPEST, Aug 3 (Reuters) - McLaren boss Zak Brown hailed the team's 200th Formula One win, with Lando Norris ahead of championship leader Oscar Piastri in a one-two finish in Hungary on Sunday, as close to perfect. The win was Norris's fifth of the season and McLaren's seventh one-two in 14 races as well as the team's fourth in a row. "You're never perfect in a race but I think that was as close to perfect as you can get," Brown told Sky Sports television. "The drivers were awesome, pit stops amazing, strategy was great to get Lando up there, Oscar drove brilliantly. I couldn't be prouder of this racing team." Norris and Piastri crossed the finish line 0.698 of a second apart, with the pair almost touching when the Australian tried to make a move on his British teammate on the penultimate lap and locked up. Team principal Andrea Stella said it had been 'firm' racing but also fair between rivals now separated by just nine points. "We had a bit of a lock-up with Oscar but at the same time Lando left some space because he knew that Oscar would have been at the limit of braking," said the Italian. "We keep being very proud of our Lando and Oscar for racing. I think this is a great way of honouring Formula One racing. These are the value of McLaren." Despite celebrating his ninth career win, Norris said he needed to improve because he was making life too hard for himself. He won from third on the grid, after dropping to fifth at the start and then making a one-stop strategy work with Piastri on two. "It's going to be a good and tough battle probably until the end. It takes a lot out of you trying to focus so much for every single session, race, everything. So, it's going be a long second half of the season, I'm sure," he said. "There are those things I need to improve on and want to improve on. I'm not giving myself the best opportunities. Even though the results have looked great, I'm not making my life very easy for myself at the minute. "So if I can work on those things, then I'll be in a better place." McLaren are only the second team to chalk up 200 grand prix wins since the world championship started in 1950. Ferrari, yet to win this season, are on 248. Mercedes, next after McLaren, have 130.

Lando Norris wins Hungarian Grand Prix, trims McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri's lead in drivers' standings
The dominant McLaren pair finished 22 seconds clear of third-placed George Russell of Mercedes with pole sitter Charles Leclerc of Ferrari fourth, grumbling at the Italian team's poor planning after he slipped out of the leading position. read more Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri celebrate on the podium after securing a McLaren one-two at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Reuters Lando Norris trimmed McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri's lead in the drivers' world championship to just nine points on Sunday when he switched tactics to lead him home by just 0.698 seconds in a thrilling finish at the Hungarian Grand Prix. The 25-year-old Briton, who moved from a two-stop strategy to one stop, held off series leader Piastri, on fresher tyres, over the closing laps of a strategic contest to claim McLaren's 200th victory and their record 13th win in Hungary. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD It was Norris's first win at the Hungaroring in the event's 40th race, avenging his 'team orders' defeat in 2024 when Piastri claimed his maiden success, his fifth victory of the season and the ninth of his career. The dominant McLaren pair finished 22 seconds clear of third-placed George Russell of Mercedes with pole sitter Charles Leclerc of Ferrari fourth, grumbling at the Italian team's poor planning after he slipped out of the leading position. 'I wasn't planning to do a one-stop,' said Norris. 'But it was the only option to get back into things and it was tough. Oscar was pushing all the way.' Piastri said he had done all he could to triumph. 'It was great racing,' he said. 'Lando did a great job.' His drive brought McLaren their fourth consecutive 1-2 finish. Two-time champion Fernando Alonso came home fifth for Aston Martin ahead of Sauber's Gabriel Bortoleto, Lance Stroll in the second Aston Martin, rookie Liam Lawson of Racing Bulls and frustrated four-time champion Max Verstappen of Red Bull. Mercedes' rookie Kimi Antonelli was 10th ahead of Racing Bulls' Isack Hadjar with seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton 12th in the second Ferrari, 24 hours after declaring himself undeserving of their race seat. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Heavy overnight rain had 're-set' the track on a breezy afternoon in front of a big crowd at the Hungaroring. Classic scrap The track temperature was only 31 degrees, encouraging thoughts of a one-stop race as tyre-wear decreased and Leclerc controlled the pace ahead of Piastri, Russell and Norris. Piastri pitted on lap 18, seeking an undercut. He returned in fifth as Leclerc responded to stay ahead. Norris inherited the lead and had a 10-second advantage, as the Monegasque regained second, with Piastri third. He then chose to stay out until pitting, in just 1.9 seconds, for hards on lap 31, rejoining fourth and facing a long run home. At the front, Leclerc responded to an apparent 'bluff' call from McLaren and pitted, falling to fourth and gifting Piastri the lead ahead of a rapid Norris as the race dissolved into a strategy and tyre-management contest between the two McLarens. Norris revelled in his delayed one-stop tactic as Piastri made a second pit on lap 45, the Briton leading with a frustrated Ferrari second, Leclerc blaming his team for bungling his plan before being passed by Piastri around Turn One on lap 51. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD This left Norris, on ageing tyres, leading his team-mate in a classic scrap to the flag, negotiating traffic and separated by half a second over the final laps. On lap 68, the Australian went close to passing in Turn One and on lap 69, he locked up. 'Remember how we go racing,' Piastri's engineer Tom Stallard reminded him. For Leclerc, soon left a distant third by the two McLarens, it was another pole wasted – the 15th time he failed to convert pole into a win in 16 attempts – and it grew worse when Russell, after two attempts, passed him on lap 63.
