Jannik Sinner Wimbledon 2025 form: Can he break Djokovic’s Grand Slam record after China Open warm-up?

Jannik Sinner enters Wimbledon 2025 in scintillating form, having demolished Pedro Martinez 6-2, 6-2, 6-1 to match the Open Era record for fewest games dropped in a third-round match. His blistering China Open warm-up performance has sparked debates about whether he can challenge Novak Djokovic’s Grand Slam record this season.

The world No. 1 hasn’t surrendered a set at SW19 yet, extending his Grand Slam winning streak to 20 matches after dominant Australian Open and French Open campaigns. With his aggressive baseline game perfectly suited to grass, Sinner’s Wimbledon title credentials grow stronger with each ruthless display.

As the tennis world anticipates a potential semifinal clash with defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, Sinner’s relentless efficiency continues rewriting the record books. His current form suggests he’s capable of achieving what seemed impossible just two years ago – dethroning Djokovic as the sport’s most dominant force.

Is Jannik Sinner the new tennis GOAT after equalling Wimbledon’s 53-year-old record?

Jannik Sinner has matched Jan Kodes’ 1972 record by conceding just 17 games through three rounds at Wimbledon 2025. The Italian’s surgical precision on grass courts raises inevitable comparisons to the Big Three’s dominance.

Notice how Sinner’s minimal game concessions mirror Djokovic’s 2021 season, but with more aggressive baseline play – he’s rewriting defensive tennis.

But can he maintain this against top-10 opponents? Grigor Dimitrov next will be his first real test!
