Another Wimbledon is in the books, and if you missed the action on the weekend you missed some amazing tennis moments.
Roger Federer beat Andy Roddick 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14 for his record 15th Grand Slam title and sixth Wimbledon championship on Sunday.
It was the longest men’s Grand Slam final in history at 77 games. The previous record was 71 games. The previous Wimbledon record was 62 games (last year’s Wimbledon final between Federer and Rafael Nadal).
Serena Williams clinched her third Wimbledon title and 11th Grand Slam crown with a 7-6 (7-3), 6-2 victory over sister Venus, the defending champion, on Saturday.
The victory added to her 2002 and 2003 wins at the All England Club and shattered Venus's hopes of a hat-trick of titles and sixth overall, which would have taken her to a level with Billie Jean King.
