A comprehensive list of all winners of the Men's Singles tournament at Wimbledon, the world's oldest tennis championship, since 1877.
2005, Henman, eh?
Well, but my favourite is already out, too.
This year is Nadal's year! Hear my words! ;)
Didn't know Federer had won all the previous years, and I'd forgotten just how strong Pete Sampras really was.
My favorite Wimbledon is still Ivanisevic's series in 2001, though. :-)))
I just watched the best tennis match of all time, I am sure of it. It was literally amazing, an insane 4 and a half hour battle between two greats.
Anyone else feel that way?
Yep, to be honest by the end of the 5th set you felt as if either of them deserved to win the trophy. The commentator actually said "we're probably watching the greatest tennis ever played" and I do not think that was an understatement.
