Alcaraz, now a two-time Wimbledon champion, predicts a challenging display from Sinner, citing the Italian’s relentless improvement and learning curve, which he believes will make this year’s final even more competitive than their previous meeting in the French Open final, which was a marathon match that lasted over five hours.
