Tennis expert and former Spanish player Alex Corretja has made a surprising prediction for the Wimbledon men’s winner. He has chosen neither Jannik Sinner nor Carlos Alcaraz to claim the title. Instead, Corretja picked World No. 2 Alexander Zverev and Hubert Hurkacz as his favorites to lift the trophy at SW19.
Alcaraz will enter the 2025 Wimbledon as the two-time defending champion. The Spaniard defeated Novak Djokovic in consecutive Wimbledon finals, joining an elite group of players to defend the title at the All-England Club.
I’m going to give Alexander Zverev a chance. And why not have a big surprise at Wimbledon this year with Hubert Hurkacz.
Alex Corretja said on Eurosport
Zverev was considered a dark horse in the 2024 Wimbledon Championships. However, the German lost to Taylor Fritz in a titanic five-set battle in the Round of 16 despite having a two-set lead.
Meanwhile, Hurkacz has been making headlines with his recent success. He won Masters 1000 titles in Miami and Shanghai. Known for his strong performances at Wimbledon, Hurkacz reached the semifinals in 2021, famously beating Roger Federer in the Swiss legend’s last professional singles match.
Carlos Alcaraz targets history at the Australian Open
Carlos Alcaraz is close to a major milestone. If he wins his first Australian Open title, he will achieve a “Career Grand Slam.” This means he will have won all four major tournaments in his career. Ranked World No. 3, Alcaraz is aiming to return to the top of the rankings. He also hopes to defend his titles at Roland Garros and Wimbledon in 2025.
Fans can expect more exciting matches between Alcaraz and his rival, Jannik Sinner. In 2024, Alcaraz won all three matches against the Italian. Their head-to-head record now stands at 6-4 in favor of the Spaniard. The two stars shared the year’s four Grand Slam titles, with Alcaraz winning Roland Garros and Wimbledon. He became the sixth player in the Open Era to win these two majors in the same season.
This rare achievement puts Alcaraz in the company of legends like Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic. With his consistent top-three finishes, Alcaraz has proven he is one of the best. He is determined to keep competing at the highest level in the new season.
At just 21 years old, Alcaraz already has four Grand Slam titles. This puts him ahead of players like Andy Murray and Stan Wawrinka. As he begins the next chapter of his career, Alcaraz is focused on adding more trophies to his collection.
