Roger Federer's victory at Wimbledon in 2017

Roger Federer became the oldest man to win the Wimbledon in 2017 at the age of 35 years and 11 months. En-route to this victory, he beat the likes of Tomas Berdych, Milos Raonic, Grigor Dimitrov, etc. The final was against Marin Cilic, and Federer defeated him in straight sets with the scoreline reading 6-3, 6-1, 6-4.

What makes this achievement all the more impressive is the fact that Federer achieved this feat by not dropping a single set throughout the tournament. Only five of his sets had gone to tiebreak in the tournament and he managed to win all of them.

Federer had won the Australian Open that year, and completed the sunshine double by capturing the Indian Wells and the Miami Open and had also won in Halle before winning yet another Wimbledon.

Federer beat Andy Roddick in the 2009 Wimbledon final

From 2003 to 2009, Roger Federer reached the Wimbledon final each and every time. He won the title on six of these occasions and only lost to Rafael Nadal in the 2008 Wimbledon final, which is widely considered one of the greatest tennis matches of all time.

Federer reached 2003 final by beating Andy Roddick in the semifinals and before beating Mark Philippoussis in the final in straight sets. The following year it was a rematch of the semifinal from 2003 as Roddick went up against the Swiss Maestro, who once again got the better of him despite dropping the first set. The final of 2005 saw the repeat of previous year's final and the outcome was the same as Federer won his third Wimbledon title.

The next three years saw Roger going up against his nemesis Rafael Nadal. Federer won the first two encounters in 2006 and 2007 before losing 2008 final to the Spaniard in five sets. The 2009 final saw Federer play Roddick for the last time in a Wimbledon final. It was the longest Grand Slam final with 77 games between the two, as Federer won Wimbledon for the sixth time in his career.
