Alcaraz Carlos Sinner Jannik

There are defeats that break you. And then there are those that forge champions.

And when Carlos Alcaraz won Roland-Garros after saving three match points against Jannik Sinner, many did not imagine the Italian capable of recovering so soon.

"An 'unexpected' triumph at Wimbledon"

But on the London grass, Sinner showed impressive resilience to get his revenge on the Spaniard, already a two-time defending champion.

Woodbridge: "He could win Wimbledon 7 times"

A performance that many were keen to highlight, including Todd Woodbridge, former world number 19, during his appearance on The Tennis podcast.

"I was convinced that Alcaraz was going to win, but Jannik triumphed. And after seeing him play this year, I think he will win Wimbledon multiple times. 5, 6… maybe even 7 times.

This situation reminds me of Djokovic when he started threatening Federer and Nadal. They just hoped he wouldn't win this tournament…"

A statement that says a lot about what the world number two could achieve in the future.
