The Daily Tube review
If you're scoring at home that's five consecutive Wimbledon titles for Federer, and 11 Grand Slam titles overall. Yesterday's classic war with rising rival Rafael Nadal was the the first time Federer has even needed five sets in a Grand Slam final, as this clip tells us! And like Pete Sampras before him (7 Wimbledon titles), Roger will leave the histrionics to others. But you could tell what a battle this was and how much it meant to him when the usually unflappable Swiss star got teary-eyed after he'd won.
