Everything You Need to Know About Wimbledon 2025 Champion Jannik Sinner
Jannik Sinner etched his name into tennis history not just with a trophy, but with a performance that signaled a new era — toppling the reigning champion on Centre Court and becoming the first Italian ever to conquer Wimbledon.
On July 13, 2025, Jannik Sinner made tennis history by capturing his first Wimbledon title. The 23-year-old Italian defeated defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in four sets on Centre Court, marking a milestone moment in his career.
Born on August 16, 2001, in San Candido, a small town in northern Italy, Sinner grew up in a close-knit family. His father, Johann, worked as a chef, while his mother, Siglinde, was employed at a ski lodge. His brother, Marc, lives a quiet life away from the spotlight and works as a fire instructor.
Before turning his full attention to tennis, Sinner was deeply involved in skiing. At 13, he made the pivotal decision to switch sports, a move his parents supported unconditionally.
In 2024, Sinner was in a relationship with Russian tennis player Anna Kalinskaya. The two were first seen together during the French Open and again at the US Open. However, by May 2025, Sinner confirmed they had parted ways.
Though there has been speculation that he may be dating Laila Hasanovic, a model from Denmark previously in a relationship with Mick Schumacher, he has not confirmed anything and has insisted he was single.
With this Wimbledon victory, Sinner becomes the first Italian ever to win the prestigious tournament. He is currently ranked number one in the world and holds four Grand Slam titles.
