Well done in winning 5 Wimbledon titles, very impressive, and the guy looks quite humble

Lets hope he beats Sampas record. Very entertaining tennis final yesterday, was glued to the tv set.

Not a tennis fan really but very impressive equalling Bjorn Borg's record of 5 consecutive titles at Wimbledon.

How many has Sampras won? Seven?

Yeah, I saw bits and pieces of the final yesterday. I was kinda in between rooms all the time. Seems like a very good and equally leveled final.

I just keep wondering if Federer and Nadal are really so much better then everyone else, or if everyone else just arent really good anymore.
Back in the days of Sampras, you had Ivanisevic and many others... and Sampras was the best but still.. it seemed like there were more contenders...

Nadal will win it next year I reckon.
