Rafael Nadal got the French Open title, but this time the Wimbledon goes to his opponent Roger Federer. It is really a sweet victory for Federer that after his final forceful overhead smash, he dropped to his knees and rolled to ground with tears in his eyes. With a quick change of clothes of white pants, white vest and white monogrammed blazer with its gold trim, Federer accepted his fifth Wimbledon trophy. This is the again the only time that someone won 5 straight Wimbledon after Bjorn Borg in 1976 to 1980. The match that was held on July 8 at the All England Club in London went for 3 hours and 45 minutes.

25-year old Swiss tennis player Federer beat Spanish opponent Rafael Nadal in 7-6 (9-7), 4-6, 7-6 (7-3), 2-6, 6-2 score. So you’ll see that the table has been turned if you will recall the result of their previous encounter at the French Open. Federer’s very happy with his win that’s for sure, as he stated in an interview, “I’m just happy with such a great run, especially at Wimbledon, the most important tournament of my life. I’m loving every minute of it, that’s clear.”

Inspiring him to win is the fact that Wimbledon champion Bjorn Borg watched his game, who afterwards congratulated him on his win.
