Fans clamber for next chapter of Sinner v Alcaraz as tickets reselling for £20,000 ahead of Wimbledon final
ATP
Jannik Sinner v Carlos Alcaraz begins shortly at Wimbledon with the next chapter of their burgeoning rivalry set to get underway. But it seems the fever for the duo has meant that the inflation of the prices to watch said final has reached a fever pitch.
Tickets for the men's singles final at Wimbledon are selling for more than £20,000 on some resale sites. Either Alcaraz will become a three time consecutive champion at 4pm BST or Sinner will claim his first.
It would also be his first not on hard courts and is five weeks on from their French Open final which saw Alcaraz prevail as he has in their last five meetings. But some tickets are going for more than £20,000 with sites such as Viagogo shilling them for £16,336 for the cheapest ticket available.
The most expensive being £20,715. On Stubhub, it is the most expensive sat at £19,460 for one match of tennis. The face value tickets are between £240-£315 so that is a whopping markup.
It also sees Wimbledon tickets reach a new high price wise as it was sat at £63 at the turn of the century. While in 2018, it reached over £200. Now it is over £300. As has become the case too with tickets in general with concerts and other sporting events now mirroring a change in times.
Fans can obtain tickets for the final via ballot and queuing for resale in the hope that a ticket becomes available. Sinner is hoping to win a fourth Grand Slam after two Australian Open titles and one US Open. However he has not beaten Alcaraz in their last five. Albeit he was the last man to beat the Spaniard in 2022 in London so has form of doing it on the biggest stage.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
