Sinner at Wimbledon 2026: draw and opponents
Sinner, world number 1, faces Brooksby in the third round. Details on the challenge and the path to the final.
Jannik Sinner, world number 1 and top seed of Wimbledon 2026, takes to the court on Friday on Court 1 for the third round against the American Jenson Brooksby. The reigning champion seeks confirmation against an opponent known for his atypical and annoying style. The appointment is set for 2pm local time and marks an important crossroads in the London draw.
Sinner passed the first rounds showing mechanical solidity, but Brooksby is not an easy customer: his defensive game and ability to vary the pace have already put several top players in crisis. The match on grass will put the American's adaptability to the test against the Italian's offensive potential. The Wimbledon grass is a merciless judge for those who base their game on extreme defense.
