Watch: Cute moment as Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek share a dance at Wimbledon Champions' Dinner

Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek lifted their maiden Wimbledon title, following their win in the title match.
Wimbledon 2025 witnessed two first-time singles champions being crowned, each with a unique yet interesting journey leading up to their triumph, making their victories all the more special.
Iga Swiatek and Jannik Sinner were both caught in a huge doping controversy at the end of last season, coping huge criticism from pundits and critics across the tennis fraternity. The Italian even faced a three-month ban after this Australian Open triumph.
However, the key question for the Sinner was how he would react and bounce back after the heartbreaking loss at Roland Garros, as he had two championship points on his opponentâs serve, but failed to convert. eventually going down to Carlos Alcaraz in what was French Openâs longest-ever final.

Meanwhile for Swiatek, things have not been easy since Roland Garros 2024, where she won her fourth major title. From being the top ranked player, she slipped to two at the end of the year, and then a poor clay season, saw the Pole go down to #8 in WTA rankings, with plenty of questions hovering over Swiatek and her performance.
Nobody would have expected the 24-year-old to end her 13-month title drought at Wimbledon, but the six-time Grand Slam champion is now the only active WTA player to win a Slam on all surfaces. Sinner too, showed that one learns from every setback, and brutally ended Alcarazâs two-year reign at the All England Club, with a dominant performance to redeem himself.
Swiatek is now 6-0 in Grand Slam finals, while the top seed won his fourth major title, and currently is the reigning champion of three out of the four major tournaments. Outside their skills on the court, they also share similar personalities off the field, as both are introverts and shy in nature.

When Swiatek learned sheâd have to perform the traditional championsâ dance after winning the trophy, she shyly hid her face in embarrassment. But on the night, the newly crowned champions aced it, as Sinner graciously invited Iga to the floor, held her hand, and led her through a few simple, elegant steps, delighting the distinguished guests and both teams at the dinner event.
Apart from their wholesome dance, it was their outfits that truly stole the show. At the Wimbledon Championsâ Dinner, Sinner impressed in a classic black tuxedo with a crisp tie, exuding timeless elegance, while Swiatek captivated in a flowing purple gown that radiated grace and sophistication.
Both champions turned heads with their polished looks, perfectly celebrating their Wimbledon triumphs in style.
