Roger
Federer retains the record of Wimbledon titles after Carlos Alcaraz's victory
in the final against Novak Djokovic.
The Swiss
maestro remains the king at All England Club, where he conquered eight
trophies: five consecutive ones between 2003 and 2007, and then in 2009, 2012,
and 2017. These titles make him the most successful male singles player in
Wimbledon history, surpassing 'Nole' by one title.
Prior to
this, Djokovic had won the Wimbledon title seven times in 2011, 2014, 2015, and
four consecutive times between 2018 and 2022 (with the tournament not being
held in 2020 due to the pandemic).
In this
particular Wimbledon final, Djokovic had the chance to equal Federer's record,
but Carlos Alcaraz thwarted Djokovic's opportunity in a memorable match that
the Spanish player won 1-6, 7-6(6), 6-1, 3-6, 6-4.
Federer and
Djokovic have faced each other 4 times at Wimbledon, with a record of 3-1 in
favor of the Serbian. Federer's only victory came in the 2012 semifinal in four
sets, while Djokovic defeated him in three finals in 2014, 2015, and the
memorable 2019 final where 'Nole' saved 2 match points and went on to win the
trophy.
Roger
Federer has competed in four Wimbledon finals in addition to winning eight
trophies. He lost three times to Djokovic and once in 2008 against Rafael
Nadal. Federer accumulated 105 victories and 14 defeats at Wimbledon, boasting
an 88% success rate.
On the
other hand, Djokovic has lost two finals at Wimbledon (2013 to Andy Murray and
2023 to Alcaraz), accumulating 92 victories and 11 defeats, with a 90% success
rate at the All England Club.
The final
against Alcaraz also presented the opportunity for Djokovic to reclaim the
world No. 1 ranking, but he remains in the second position on the ATP ranking.
Djokovic's next appearance will be at the Toronto Open in the first week of
August, a tournament he previously won in 2016, defeating Kei Nishikori in the
final with a score of 6-3, 7-5.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
