The Wimbledon 2019 final has gone down in tennis history as not only the longest final at The All England Lawn Tennis Club, but one of the greatest. After victories against Kei Nishikori in the quarter-final and Rafa Nadal in the semi-final, Roger faced Novak Djokovic with the aim of winning a ninth Wimbledon trophy. The highly anticipated final went to five sets with Djokovic saving two match points before eventually winning the final set 13-12 in a tiebreak.
