“They are disgusted like us” – Carlos Alcaraz fans amused by Prince George & Princess Charlotte’s ‘disappointed’ reaction while meeting Jannik Sinner
Carlos Alcaraz fans have found amusement in the visibly disappointed reactions of Prince George and Princess Charlotte following Jannik Sinner’s Wimbledon 2025 men’s singles victory over Alcaraz on July 13. The 11-year-old Prince George and 10-year-old Princess Charlotte, known to be ardent supporters of Alcaraz, attended the final with their parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, in the Royal Box. Sinner’s 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 win ended Alcaraz’s bid for a third consecutive title, leaving the young royals crestfallen as their mother, Kate, presented the trophy to the Italian champion.
Footage captured the siblings’ downcast expressions during the trophy ceremony, with George adopting a stern “angry face” and Charlotte mirroring his subdued demeanor, their arms resting on the box’s wall. Fans noted their reaction echoed the dismay felt by Alcaraz’s supporters, with sentiments on social platforms likening the royals’ disappointment to their own. Charlotte’s animated support during the match—wincing and cheering—contrasted sharply with her post-match mood, while George’s composed yet visibly frustrated stance drew comparisons to a “disappointed football manager.”
Sinner, in a gracious gesture, signed tennis balls for George, Charlotte, and their absent brother Prince Louis, engaging them with questions about their tennis rackets. Despite the loss, Alcaraz praised Sinner’s performance, saying, “Thank you for the player you are,” while the royal children’s reaction has become a talking point, amusing fans who see it as a relatable display of loyalty to their favorite player.
