The Greatest Wimbledon Finals in History
2008: Rafael Nadal vs Roger Federer
Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer established the greatest rivalry in tennis in the 21st century. Many of their encounters set the tone for how tennis would be from then on. And at Wimbledon, it was the perfect stage for history to unfold.
In 2008, Roger Federer was the five-time champion of The Championships, aiming for a sixth consecutive title. That was something that hadn’t been achieved since the amateur era in 1886. The Swiss player sought to etch another memorable chapter in his career. But, he encountered a determined Rafa Nadal, who fought to enhance his own legacy further – and succeeded.
It was a grueling five-set battle, lasting almost five hours, with a final score of 6-4, 6-4, 6-7 (5-7), 6-7 (8-10), and 9-7. Nadal broke the Swiss player’s absolute dominance at Wimbledon, claiming his first title at the All-England Club.
2009: Roger Federer vs Andy Roddick
In 2008, Roger Federer suffered one of his most painful defeats against his sporting nemesis, Rafa Nadal. That motivated him to seek revenge at his favorite tournament, and by 2009, the Swiss player reached his seventh consecutive final, this time against an old acquaintance: Andy Roddick.
In 2004 and 2005, the Swiss and the American faced each other in the final, where Federer dominated Roddick almost at will. Until 2009 arrived, when Federer encountered a determined Roddick who pushed the five-time champion to his limits. They played a staggering 77 games, making it the match with the most games in the history of The Championships Finals.
Although the result was the same as in the previous two finals, with Roger Federer emerging as the victor, the feeling left by this trilogy in its final chapter was magnificent.
1980: Bjorn Borg vs John McEnroe
Wimbledon usually had a dominator. In different eras, Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, and Pete Sampras, dominated The Championships. But, before them, there was Bjorn Borg.
Borg, in the Open Era, set the milestone of becoming the first male tennis player to achieve four consecutive championships at Wimbledon. And he had the opportunity to reach a fifth consecutive title, which he accomplished. However, the setting and the rival could not have been more perfect.
The Swede faced one of his greatest adversaries, John McEnroe, in one of the most dramatic matches ever remembered. A five-set match with the score of 1-6, 7-5, 6-3, 6-7 (16-18), and 8-6, etched Borg’s name in history as Wimbledon’s first five-time champion of the Open Era. A feat that only Roger Federer managed to replicate.
There’s a reason why Bjorn Borg was a true idol for players like Sampras, Federer, Djokovic, and company.
1995: Steffi Graf vs Arantxa Sanchez Vicario
Can a single moment signify entry into immortality? In the case of German player Steffi Graf and Spanish player Arantxa Sanchez Vicario, a single game served as that ticket.
The 1995 Wimbledon Final between Graf and Sanchez Vicario witnessed a masterpiece in the eyes of the world. In the eleventh game of the third set, with the score tied at 5-5, the world seemed to hold its breath, knowing that something incredible could unfold.
And indeed, with 32 points and 13 deuces, both players showcased through their actions why they deserved to compete in this grand final.
As a side note, Steffi Graf defeated Arantxa Sanchez Vicario with a score of 4-6, 6-1, and 7-5.
2005: Venus Williams vs Lindsay Davenport
If there is one final match that serves as a reference to the greatness of Wimbledon, it is the 2005 women’s final between Americans Venus Williams and Lindsay Davenport.
The match that decided the title of The Championships that year was truly remarkable. Miraculous points, high intensity, and maximum excitement were all part of the two hours and 45 minutes that marked the longest final in the history of Wimbledon.
The elder Williams sister claimed victory with a score of 4-6, 7-6 (7-4), and 9-7, securing her third title out of the five that “Venus” would eventually win at the All England Club. Meanwhile, it was the last time Davenport reached a Grand Slam final in her career.
Undoubtedly, Wimbledon once again showcased its greatness, thanks to this memorable encounter.
