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.

My beautiful Roger,

I will admit i was scared during the second set at 5 all but you turned the match around majestically...like only you can.

Your win makes me giddy with happiness....you looked dashing holding that trophy aloft...only you make it look like ballet.

Your moves around the court the delicate touches others can only dream about playing like that. It was emotional...and you deserved to Win!!

Congrats to you and your family...your twin daughters are v.cute.

Big kisses M

Incredible! VERY important victory against Novak in the semis. Roger will now feel himself confident on his own match-points against Djokovic :) The final… Well, I was so nervous that I have nearly destroyed my TV set when there were break-point opportunities for Murray in the end of the 2nd set; everything could really have gone wrong. But what a great relief in the end!!! Thank you for the brilliant performance and keeping SO many people SO happy! Good luck for the Olympics, Roger!!!
