Federer won Wimbledon and the US Open 5 times in a row

In 2008 Federer won his 5th consecutive US Open by defeating a young Andy Murray in a clean straight sets victory.

Whilst this is a special achievement in its own right, it becomes even more special when considering that Federer had also won his 5th consecutive Wimbledon just the year before.

Federer's victory over Murray meant he became the first player ever to win 5 consecutive titles at 2 different Grand Slams.

To win 5 consecutive titles at a Grand Slam is one of the rarest feats in tennis with only 4 people in the Open Era achieving this.

However, for Federer to do this at two events is unprecedented and when considering he did this on two different surfaces as well it illustrates his ability to dominate on a multitude of surfaces.

This record will be incredibly difficult to beat and it seems unlikely that it ever will be beaten as it required Federer to produce a previously unheard level of skill dominance over tennis to do it.
