In the final set, the players have to keep going until one player is 2 games ahead of the other. There is no set limit on the number of games played - that's why it took so long.
Björn Borg became the first tennis player to win five consecutive Wimbledon titles in the 1980 Wimbledon Men's Singles final after he defeated John McEnroe in a five-set match, often cited as the best Wimbledon final ever played.
because the no.2 seed played in the upper half with the no.1 seed in the semi and beat her so she went to the final instead of the no.1 and n the final usually no.1 seed meet no.2 seed
A set in tennis ends when a player reaches 6 games with a margin of at least 2 games over his opponent. A set can also be won by 7 games to 5. In most situations, should the set reach 6-6 in games, a 12-point tiebreaker is played. This tiebreaker counts as 1 game. Whoever wins the tiebreaker wins the set 7-6. In grand slams (Australian Open, Wimbledon, French Open, US Open) 6 point tiebreakers are played rather than 12 point tiebreakers. In the fifth set of the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and the French Open, when a set reaches 6-6 in games, the set continues as usual until one player achieves a 2-game advantage. The set can end 8-6 or 100-98 or even higher, as long as there is a 2-game differential.
Roger Federer from Switzerland won his sixth Wimbledon men's singles crown in seven years, beating Andy Roddick from the USA 5-7 7-6 7-6 3-6 16-14 (the longest final set in a Grand Slam at the time, now 70-68 recorded by John Isner and Nicolas Mahut at Wimbledon the following year) in the final on July 5th 2009.
As of my last update, Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer have faced each other numerous times, with Djokovic having a slight edge in their head-to-head record. One of their most memorable matches was the 2019 Wimbledon final, where Djokovic won in a historic five-set match that featured a final set tiebreaker. For the most current match results, please check the latest sports news sources.
The US Open is the only Open in which there is a tiebreaker. The rest (Australian, French and Wimbledon) do not have a tiebreaker, but have the rule of set score, difference of 2, after it has reached 6-6 in the final set.
