Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are engaged in a tug of war in the Wimbledon finals as the tennis world awaits the champion of the third Grand Slam of the year. Along with the tennis enthusiasts, the players' parents have also visited Wimbledon to witness their sons in an exciting final.

Alcaraz made his way to the finals after overwhelming Taylor Fritz in the semi-final round. The Spaniard dominated three sets out of four, including the first, third, and fourth (6-4, 5-7, 6-3, 7-6(6)). On the other hand, Sinner clinched his spot in the finals after getting the better of Novak Djokovic, who was pursuing his 25th Grand Slam title. The Italian bested the Serb in a straight three-set match and advanced to the finals with a score of 6-3, 6-3, 6-4.

Now, Alcaraz and Sinner are squaring off against each other in the finals, and their parents have come to the Centre Court to watch their sons engage in a terrific showdown. One of the users on X shared a picture of Sinner's mother, Siglinde Sinner, sitting in the spectators' box.

Another user shared a picture of Carlos Alcaraz's father González, and his mother, Virginia Garfia Escandón, enjoying the electrifying encounter.

Carlos Alcaraz made his feelings known about making it to the Wimbledon finals for the third time

Carlos Alcaraz has been proving his billing in Wimbledon for the last two years by claiming the titles in the 2024 and 2023 iterations of the tournament. He is once again ready to defend his title in the 2025 season. Following his semifinal win over Fritz, he sat in a press conference, where he opened up about advancing to the finals.

Stating that he wants to enjoy the moment with his team and his close people, he shared his sentiments with the media.

"Right now, I don't want to think about Sunday," he said. "To be honest, I just want to enjoy this moment, enjoy that I qualified to another final, the third in a row here in Wimbledon. So, this is something that is really difficult. I have to think about it," said Carlos Alcaraz.

He added:

"I have to sometimes take my time, think about it and enjoy with my team, my close people that I have here. I just think about it, and I will have time to play and to think on Sunday."

If Carlos Alcaraz wins the Wimbledon title for the third time consecutively, then he would be the fifth player to achieve this in the Open Era, joining formidable personalities such as Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic.
