Federer became the first player to win 8 Wimbledon titles when he beat Marin Cilic in straight sets in the 2017 final. The next year, however, the defending champion fell in a five-set quarterfinal against Kevin Anderson after failing to convert a match point in the third set.

In 2019, there was more match point misery in store for Federer. In a Wimbledon finals for the ages, Djokovic denied the Swiss two consecutive championship points on serve at 8-7, 40-15 before winning his 5th title in a historic first-ever fifth-set tiebreak at the tournament.
