#4 2014 - Novak Djokovic beat Roger Federer

Roger Federer wasn’t winning too many titles,but he is one of the very few champions who managed to stay in contention.

The 3 hour 56 minute match tested every last ounce of the endurance and stamina of each player and the younger one survived, though many connoisseurs would swear that wasn’t Djoker’s best game ever.

He defeated Federer 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 5-7, 6-4. Djokovic couldn’t close it in the fourth set, after going ahead 2-1, the pressure becoming too much. The same could be said for Federer who had taken the first set in a tie-breaker but lost some fizz in the middle, experiencing the British heat. However, right through the game the defensive forte of Djokovic showed and it was Federer’s class that he even made it to the fifth set.

Djokovic, facing a downward spiral, turned it around midway of the fifth set after being faced with the adversity of a break point staring at him. But once he won the point, he was himself. Djokovic eventually won his seventh Major Title and second Wimbledon with this win, after previously beating Rafael Nadal for his first.
