Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz face off in the Sunday's Wimbledon final, heralding a new era in tennis. With Alcaraz seeking a third consecutive title and Sinner eyeing redemption, this match could define the next decade.

It sure seems fitting that the Wimbledon final between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner on Sunday represents the first time the same two men meet for that title right after playing for the French Open trophy since a couple of guys named Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal did so every year from 2006-2008.

Alcaraz and Sinner each won their semifinal matches, setting up a rematch of their French Open final at Wimbledon while equaling a feat only achieved by the Federer-Nadal pairing.

Alcaraz flirted with a shock first-round defeat against Italian Fabio Fognini, needing five sets. Sinner trailed by two sets against Grigor Dimitrov in the fourth-round after hurting his elbow, but was reprieved when the Bulgarian retired hurt.
