Wimbledon 2017: Def. Marin Cilic in the final

Watching the 35-year-old Federer pummel his opponent and seal his 8^th Wimbledon title with an ace, is the stuff dreams are made of. Just when everybody had started to write off the Swiss, he came back, like a phoenix which rises from the ashes, and won two of the first three Slams played in 2017.

An easier victory couldn’t possibly have been scripted, as the Swiss made quick work of the injured Croat, winning 6-3, 6-1, 6-4. This was the first time that Federer had won Wimbledon without dropping a set all tournament, and people all over the world struggled to find adjectives that could adequately describe his greatness.
