Novak Djokovic has beaten Roger Federer to win the 2019 Wimbledon men’s title.
It is the fifth Wimbledon triumph and 16th Grand Slam title for the 32-year-old.
Djokovic saved two championship points to retain his Wimbledon title with a thrilling final-set tie-break win over Federer.
On a Centre Court, with an atmosphere that felt at times more akin to football than tennis, Djokovic won 7-6 (7-5) 1-6 7-6 (7-4) 4-6 13-12 (7-3).
The Serbian world number one has now won 16 Grand Slam titles.
The clock hit four hours 57 minutes when Federer scooped a shot high to hand Djokovic victory.
“It’s quite unreal,” Djokovic said after winning his fifth Wimbledon title.
Federer, who at 37 was chasing a record-equalling ninth Wimbledon singles title, added: “It was a great match, it was long, it had everything. Novak, congratulations, man, that was crazy.”
