Federer wins Wimbledon for the eighth time

Roger came into the 2017 edition of the Wimbledon Championships on the back of an awe-inspiring run to the title in Melbourne. He finally seemed to have regained his mojo and with Nadal losing to Gilles Muller, Federer seemed destined to take home his 8th Wimbledon title.

However, the manner in which Federer won the crown, was astounding. Top players like Milos Raonic, Tomas Berdych, Grigor Dimitrov lay in his wake as he reached the final without dropping a set.

In the final against Marin Cilic, he was irresistible, sending down 8 aces and cracking 20 winners while making just 12 unforced errors. In the process, Federer shattered another record. He became the first man since Bjorn Borg to win at SW19 without dropping a single set. In addition to this, he also became the only man to hold 8 Wimbledon crowns.

The way Federer marched to the title, displaying the dominance of yesteryear, is what gets the 2017 Wimbledon victory the No.4 spot on our list.
