In all honesty, he deserved that.

Well done, Novak (although I would have preferred an RG to a lame Wimby, lol)

 

[LuuKyK]

Spoiler

OP was right.

 

[FTF]

Ugh, oh well.

 

[m_shortpants]

fuck this shit. most disappointing shit ever. the hell were those errors

 

[Peru]

Shitty way to end it. What's up with building up hope from a hopeless situation and then losing it in a wet fart kind of way.

 

[agrajag]

Federer isn't done. He'll get another Wimby, watch. Next year.

 

[Salvadora]

Injustica

 

[massivekettle]

Congrats, Djoker. You were the better player overall today (no disrespect to Fed), and as such deserved to win.

I guess Fed will have to wait another year to claim a record-setting 8th title.

 

[Remyzero]

Just like that huh.

 

[tycoonheart]

Yeah baby! Totally deserved. He made it hard for himself. Should've closed it out in the 4th. Marvelous game from Novak. Amazing groundstrokes. That might have been the best defensive game I've seen roger play.

 

[zero_suit]

Injustica

Nope, Novak was the better player.

 

[Kraftwerk]

 

[Vio-Lence]

Blaming the tactical timeout to stop momentum.

 

[SIRF]

Great match, I was rooting for Novak but it's always sad to see Federer loses. Hope to see him back again.

 

[Sax Russel]

Fed why couldn't you lose in the 4th instead if dragging it out just to do that.

Grats Djokovic though, well deserved.

 

[Jinto]

That was some quality tennis. I'm not much of a Federer fan, but he's the best of all time.

As for Djokovic, if he keeps serving like this, he's gonna be pretty unstoppable during the hard court season.

 

[m_shortpants]

what the hell happened to his serve from the beginning of the 5th

 

[Zutroy]

That's the result I was after!

 

[John Dunbar]

well, let's look at the bright side.

at least it wasn't nadal.

 

[Romez]

Thank fuck for that, couldn't stand it if Federer won.

 

[Niraj]

Can't believe Fed couldn't get it to a tiebreaker

There's no tiebreak in the fifth set at Wimbledon.

 

[Kensuke]

Federer has nothing to be ashamed of. Sure, he made some errors, but that's part of his game.

It was an awesome match. Federer winning would have made it legendary, but it can't always happen.

 

[zero_suit]

well, let's look at the bright side.

at least it wasn't nadal.

He'll just win the US Open again, oh well.

 

[Parch]

That was only a billion time more entertaining than the women's final.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Uuuuuuuuugggggghhhhhhhh

 

[agrajag]

the silver lining is that now hopefully Novak will have the confidence to decimate Dull in the hardcourt slams.

 

[massivekettle]

Sampras stays on top in terms of record in Wimby finals. 7-0. Federer now at 7-2.

 

[zero_suit]

That was only a billion time more entertaining than the women's final.

That was the worst demolition I've seen since Serena versus Maria at AO 2007.

 

[Pepiope]

That's a beautiful trophy.

 

[Deadman]

I was so close yet so far

Federer/Bouchard lets go.

Lisicki also acceptable.

 

[zroid]

Congrats Novak

well-deserved tbh

 

[gembel]

Uniqlo wins

 

[thehypocrite]

Federer isn't done. He'll get another Wimby, watch. Next year.

Lol. No he won't. That was some horrible tennis by Roger.

 

[Diamond]

Sad for Roger but Djokovic just was superior in baseline rallies. He couldn't conclude in the fourth but was always great on defense. I do think a Federer who would have played like at the end of the fourth during the early sets would have won, but you have to be consistent.

That's details though, great match from the two players.

 

[LuuKyK]

Such an amazing trophy Wimbledon has.

And btw, Fed's twins are adorable.

 

[Niraj]

Lol. No he won't. That was some horrible tennis by Roger.

What are you talking about?

 

[tycoonheart]

That was the worst demolition I've seen since Serena versus Maria at AO 2007.

How about Rafa destroying Roger at French 2009?

 

[Hootie]

fed noooooooooooooooOOOOOOoooOOoooOOOooOOOOOOOoo

 

[zroid]

What are you talking about?

Probably only saw the last couple games.

 

[agrajag]

Lol. No he won't. That was some horrible tennis by Roger.

Are you fucking insane? He went five sets with the best player in the world right now.

 

[TJ Verboten]

Great for Novak, especially after coming up short the last couple years in Slam finals.

He can now say he's got a 2011 Wimbledon final win over a prime Nadal, and a 2014 Wimbledon final win over a past-prime but still formidable Fed.

Bravo to men's tennis for putting on the best GS final since what? At least the 5 set Nadal FO 2013 win over Djokovic (damn you netcourt), probably better tennis quality than that.

I'd say best since the 2012 Aussie Open 5 set marathon win Djokovic had over Nadal.

Definitely one to remember.

 

[Reyne]

Well played Djokovic. Federer played as good as I could have hoped him to play at this point, if not better. Not much else to say. Well earned win.

 

[zero_suit]

What are you talking about?

He would have gotten straight-setted if he was "terrible".

 

[thehypocrite]

What are you talking about?

That there's no logical reason to think that Fed will win another GS or another Wimbledon. He's done and will only get worse going forward.

 

[MIMIC]

Lol. No he won't. That was some horrible tennis by Roger.

Lord

*facepalm*

 

[Kraftwerk]

Great match. This is why I love sports.

I don't play Tennis, I know shit about most of the rules or the tournaments, but to watch the intensity, passion and sportsmanship is too damn good.

Well deserved Novak.

Roger, my baby, we love you <3

'single tear'

 

[miserable]

Oh Roger, you had one job
Now as a Nadal fan i must live more with the false hope that your GS record will be matched by Rafa :/

 

[FTF]

That there's no logical reason to think that Fed will win another GS or another Wimbledon. He's done and will only get worse going forward.

Yeah not what everyone is talking about.

 

[Niraj]

That there's no logical reason to think that Fed will win another GS or another Wimbledon. He's done and will only get worse going forward.

There's also no logical reason to think Federer played horrible tennis today, and yet, here we are.

 

[inm8num2]

Happy for Djokovic, bummed for Fed. He was so close. :/

I don't get the negative comments about Fed. He has no business competing for majors at his age, and yet here he is. Still a top 4 player.
