7th title in Wimbledon

08.07.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 3

Roger won today’s Wimbledon final against Andy Murray 4-6, 7-5, 6-3, 6-4, capturing his 17th Grand Slam title and regaining the no. 1 spot in the world ranking!

"This is a magic moment for me." Roger said after the match, holding the trophy. "I couldn't be any happier. I had a tough time in the last years. This victory is just coming at the right time."

Roger equalled Pete Sampras' record at the All England Club with a seventh Wimbledon title. He also equalled another Sampras-record by regaining world no. 1 tomorrow: 286 weeks on top of the ATP world ranking. "This is unbelievable: Sampras is my hero", said Roger.

Murray had a better start and broke Roger in the first game of the first set. Roger made a lot of unforced errors and seemed a bit nervous. The second set was much more even. After the players returned from a rain interruption, Roger was unstoppable and converted his second match-ball after 3:24 hours of play.

In continuum, it must be said that the consistency you have shown over the years cannot be matched by any player for a long while. Your records speak for themselves. I am certain we will see you playing long after Nadal and Djokovic, (who while fantastic players in their own right lack your total brilliance) have hung up their racquets. Their ball bashing style of play will take a toll on their bodies and they will withdraw from the game either due to burnout or injury sooner than later.

Congrats Roger,

Your list of achievements, like you, are astounding!
May you continue to play tennis and keep breaking records each time you step on court!

287 weeks at the top of your profession and counting.17 majors and counting.We are truly blessed to witness you perform your magic with the racquet with each match you play.

You have shown the younger lot, that age is just a number and how it is always easier to reach top, than maintain a position on it.

Bravo, Roger. Upwards and
