rewinning

Taking victory twice

Rewinning is winning something again—a title, championship, or position previously held and lost.

The word emphasizes reclaiming rather than simply winning: The team focused on rewinning the trophy they'd surrendered last year.

Less common than "winning back" but more compact.
