Sinner arrives as the dominant world number one having won all five Masters 1000 events of 2026, while Djokovic at 39 chases a record-extending 25th Grand Slam and a record-equalling eighth Wimbledon crown. Djokovic beat Sinner in five sets at the Australian Open semi-finals in January and holds two wins from three Wimbledon meetings betwe…
