Notes and Editorial Reviews
Roger Federer had to dig deep as he fought back to beat Andy Roddick and claim a second successive Wimbledon title in a rain-hit final. The American underdog looked in control at one set all and a break up. A subdued Federer only found his rhythm after a second rain stoppage, breaking back and racing through the tie-break. Federer saved six more break points in the fourth set, but broke Roddick to lead 4-3 and served out for a 4-6 7-5 7-6 6-4 win and the title. After a stuttering display, he completed the victory with an ace before sinking to his knees and breaking into tears.
