Novak Djokovic beats Roger Federer to win Wimbledon
A packed Centre Court witnessed the world's top two players battle
for glory for nearly three hours in a match that lived up to its
billing.
Federer was aiming to add to his incredible haul of seven Wimbledon titles but couldn't match defending champion Djokovic's resilience with the Serb eventually winning 7-6 (7-1) 6-7 (10-12) 6-4 6-3.
"It's a big challenge playing against Roger. A lot of players of my generation have looked up to him and followed his lead," said Djokovic who now has the same number of Wimbledon titles as coach Boris Becker who won his first 30 years ago.
