Wimbledon 2022 Men’s Final: Novak Djokovic won his 7th Wimbledon title and 21st Grand Slam on July 10, 2022 with a four-set win over Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios. The 35-year-old has become the fourth man in the Open era to win four successive Wimbledon titles after Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras and Roger Federer, remaining undefeated at the tournament since 2017.
Djokovic won the men’s singles final by 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (7/3) to equal Pete Sampras’s mark of seven titles at the All England Club. The top-seeded tennis star is just one Grand Slam win away from the men’s record of eight held by Roger Federer.
