For the second straight year, Novak Djokovic beat Roger Federer in the Wimbledon final, this time by a score of 7-6 (1), 6-7 (10), 6-4, 6-3 to win his third title at Wimbledon.
Djokovic has had little problem playing the role of the villain, as long as it has meant winning a Wimbledon championship. He did so a year ago when most of Centre Court was backing Federer, emerging victorious in a five-set thriller.
This year, there seemed to be even more sentiment in favor of Federer and his quest to take sole possession of the lead in career Wimbledon men’s title single.
