Mumbai: Jannik Sinner had a few sleepless nights between the French Open and Wimbledon.

His song "Dust and Glory," featuring legendary tenor Andrea Bocelli, was released between the French Open and Wimbledon.

From the French Open to Wimbledon, he went from nothing on the dirt to triumph on the greens. Competing against the same individual at the same point of a Grand Slam event in a month.

What about that as a redemption song?

Get ready for Jannik Sinner, your new Wimbledon champion.

The universe No. 1, so at one with his grass tennis, he forced even the two-time defending champion at Wimbledon and his Roland Garros opponent to dance to his melodies at Centre Court on Sunday. Despite being the favorite and the leader, Carlos Alcaraz was defeated by Sinner, who turned the tables and won 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4.

This Wimbledon final was a cat-and-mouse four-setter in which the Italian allowed the first set to slip, but he dominated the rest of the game, in contrast to that grueling five-set French Open final where Sinner watched three championship points turn into a devastating loss.

Therefore, during the second championship point, the Italian stood on Center Court with his arms outstretched because his serve was not returned. The 23-year-old at last triumphed at the most renowned Grand Slam over his toughest opponent, who had defeated him five times in a row.

The truth is that Sinner has moved on. From the agony of the French Open to the bliss of Wimbledon. Becoming the first man to have participated in all four Slam finals in the last three decades, joining Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Andy Murray, and winning the first Wimbledon final since 2002 without any of the four. From taping his first musical in a studio to making history as the first Italian, regardless of gender, to have his name inscribed on the Wimbledon trophy.

Grand Slam final losses may linger. The entire world can be drowned out by defeats in Grand Slam finals when a single great hit would have made history. The first in a wave of bewilderment. Sinner was down there battling the endless stream of what-ifs. After a few days and a few ping pong games, he was able to break it. He was back in Wimbledon with his tennis.

So far, so good, but what about facing off against the same guy again for one more ultimate? Do you have any terrible recollections?

Before the final, the Italian said, "I don't think I would be in the position to play a final again if it would be a lot in my head."

Don't just play a final, win it.

Alcaraz was under early pressure as his initial serves fell after establishing the mood for his encore with an ace. In the fifth game, Sinner won the break by taking advantage of mistakes made by his second serve.

Although the polished baseliner had mixed success, he was still displaying courage in moving forward and changing things up with volleys and drops.

However, Alcaraz managed to tie the score at 4-4 by using his own drop shot and increasing the intensity of his baseline game. The Spaniard started landing his first serves and hitting shots he had been missing. A set point glared at Sinner when he began to drop his serves and also lost his balance on the worn out brown area at the baseline.

Following the rescue of the first, a second one followed. Alcaraz wasn't going to allow another one to get away. By obtaining the most acute angle for a backhand get at full stretch, which floated over the net and fell dead, he managed to emerge victorious from a vicious baseline exchange. The finale had come to life.

That was what you may expect from Alcaraz. Just as it was.

Alcaraz lost the second set in three of his past six games after cruising through the shores in the first. Alcaraz also experienced a dip in the final, falling into hazardous 0-40 territory out of nowhere at the beginning of the second set, and he quickly lost a break. Although Sinner was in front, he wasn't really in charge. His service games were brought to deuce territory, where his bound elbow was put to the test and his legs were pushed. Nevertheless, the world No. 1 was strong and tall.

Additionally, the Italian won't be able to give up this time at the set's commercial conclusion. Sinner's serve for the set was so amazing this time that it caused a gasp. Following a baseline battle, Sinner this time discovered the sharpest angle for a crosscourt forehand winner.

In the third set, the Spaniard's serve was under pressure early, as he was forced to repel a few break points in the first game. In the competition, Sinner's game was becoming more and more similar to that of a sinner, and he even felt at ease enough to try a shot between his legs at the net.

Alcaraz's concentration and serving skills were declining. With Alcaraz's initial hits diminishing—he only had a 43% first serve percentage to his opponent's 68%—Sinner attacked his second serves at 4-4. A break point was set up by a powerful winner after a superb return of serve. And Alcaraz tripped when Sinner snapped.

Not even in the fourth set could Alcaraz get back on his feet. Sinner was on fire; he was flat. Fittingly, a break in the third game occurred when Sinner hit a backhand return winner off Alcaraz's vulnerable second serve.

In contrast to Paris, London wouldn't let him lose this edge. Since that French Open, Sinner has moved on. He is currently a Wimbledon champion.
