Wimbledon 2004: Def. Andy Roddick in the final
With that ponytail hairstyle still in tow, Federer outsmarted his arch-rival of that time, a bearded Andy Roddick, in four entertaining sets. Federer was in trouble early on though, and he was rescued in part by a rain delay right after Roddick took the first set.
Although the match remained tight till the end, Federer earned the 4-6,7-5,7-6(3),6-4 win by changing his tactics at the right time. Just a boy of 22 back then and a three-time Slam champion already, the Swiss ace was beginning to unfurl his wings.
