Defending Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic will face eight-times winner
Roger Federer in Sunday’s men’s singles final after both completed
four-set semi-final wins on Friday July 12,2019, against Roberto Bautista Agut and
Rafael Nadal respectively
Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic have combined to win 12 Wimbledon titles over the past 16 years. On Sunday, the two champions will meet again on Centre Court with another title on the line
This will mark just the fourth FedEx Head2Head meeting between the Swiss and the Serbian at the All England Club, and also their first in four years. Federer won their first clash in the 2012 semi-finals en route to the title, and Djokovic claimed back-to-back triumphs in the 2014-15 finals
Top seed and defending champion Djokovic leads second seed Federer 25-22 in their FedEx ATP Head2Head series. They have the second-most prolific rivalry in the Open Era, only trailing Djokovic-Nadal (54 matches). Federer and Djokovic have squared off in 13 of the 14 most recent seasons on the ATP Tour, but the Serbian has gotten the upper hand lately, winning their past four matches. Djokovic also leads their grass-court series 2-1, prevailing in the 2014 and 2015 Wimbledon finals
Their recent battles have still been highly competitive, though. Djokovic’s victory over Federer at the 2018 Rolex Paris Masters was named “Best Match Of 2018” by ATPTour.com.
