Am absolutely thrilled to see Roger Federer lifting his beloved trophy yet again and getting back to world no is just an icing on the cake: You are just kevv Roger!!!!! • 7 Wimbledon titles: all-time record (shared with Sampras and Renshaw) • 7 titles at an individual Major: all-time record (shared with Sampras and Nadal*). • Most weeks at number one (at least 286): all time record. Federer is guaranteed to hold the number one spot for at least two weeks, which will give him the 286 weeks. • 12 titles on grass: all-time record. • 10 consecutive years reaching at least one Major final: all-time record. • 24 finals at Majors: all-time record. • 32 semifinals at Majors: all-time record. • 244 match wins at Majors: all-time record. • 33 consecutive quarterfinals at Majors: all-time record. • 90.41% (66-7) - Best winning percentage at Majors on grass: all-time record (Borg still has the best winning percentage at Wimbledon at 92.73% (51-4) but his overall average on grass is dragged down by 3 losses at other Majors played on grass). * Richard Sears, Bill Larned, Bill Tilden and William Renshaw also won a Major (equivalent) 7 times. Nevertheless, their titles did not involve playing 7 matches to win each year |
