Newly minted World No. #1, Jannik Sinner, will look to plant the Italian flag at Wimbledon.
Jannik Sinner, hailing from San Candido in Northern Italy, has made the quarterfinals or better at all eight tournaments he has played so far in 2024. Sinner has won four titles this year, including at the Halle Open a week before Wimbledon 2024. The event at Halle was his first after taking over as the ATP World No. #1, one of only eight men to achieve that feat of winning their first tournament after becoming the top ranked ATP singles player.

An injured hip forced Sinner to withdraw from the Madrid Open in the last eight match against Felix Auger-Aliassime, subsequently missing his home event, the Italian Open. The Italian was fully fit in time for Roland Garros, where he reached the semifinals for the first time. Â

Sinner will next be seen in action at Wimbledon 2024, where he will look to bag his second grass court title and his second major title of the season.
Â
Sinner is set to begin his Wimbledon campaign with a first-round rematch against Yannick Hanfmann in their second meeting on tour. They last played in the first round of the 2023 US Open, which Sinner won. The Italian was a semifinalist last year, while his German rival is yet to make it past the first round at SW19.
