Novak Djokovic
An incredible five-set enthralling championship match took place on Wimbledon’s Centre Court. Novak Djokovic lifted his fifth Wimbledon crown and declares himself to be the 16-time Grand Slam champion after a 7-6(5), 1-6, 7-6(4), 4-6, 13-12(3) win over Roger Federer. The Swiss squandered two championship points in the final set and Djokovic managed to bounce back from that break.
It was the first time ever in the history of Wimbledon a tiebreaker was played in the final set. And Djokovic became the first player in 71 years to win the championship match after saving match points.
What. A. Match! 👏

Tennis is one of the few sports where you can be down on almost all the statistics and still be in the lead. #Djokovic showing that today. #Federer is playing better but Novak is winning the big points. #Wimbledon
