Men's World No.1, Sinner, rallied to a 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 triumph against Spaniard Alcaraz in the summit clash at the AELTC on Sunday, a day after Swiatek blazed past American Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in the title match in the women's category.
This victory was Sinner's maiden title at the historic Wimbledon, a first for Swiatek as well.
The 24-year-old Swiatek, who already held four French Open titles and a US Open crown, added the prestigious Venus Rosewater Dish to her collection.
The Pole, who had never advanced past the quarterfinals at Wimbledon before this year, silenced all doubters with her crowning moment at the iconic event.
