The Spanish tennis player was overwhelmed by Jannik Sinner in the Wimbledon final last weekend and he was seen admitting that he was struggling to contend with the Italian’s power. During one of the breaks in the third set, Alcaraz was heard asking his team: “How is it possible that he’s so much better than me in the backfield?”

The final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, which Sinner won 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4, drew an average of 2.9 million viewers on ESPN, the network announced Wednesday. The numbers reportedly peaked at 4 million viewers at the end of the match.

Jannik Sinner has defeated two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 to win his first Wimbledon championship.
