Defending champion Novak Djokovic saw off seven-time champion Roger
Federer in four sets to win his third Wimbledon and ninth Grand Slam
title.

overtake the likes of Jimmy Connors, Andre Agassi and Ivan Lendl in the
all-time list of major winners.
Federer, 33, had hoped to become the first man to win Wimbledon eight times.
The Swiss won a thrilling second set tie-break but Djokovic came through to win in two hours and 56 minutes."I have to say it's a big challenge playing against
Roger," he said. "A lot of players of my generation have looked up to
him and followed his lead.
