Novak Djokovic defeated Nick Kyrgios 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (7-3) in the Wimbledon 2022 final on Sunday. This is his seventh Wimbledon title, and fourth consecutive.
This was also his 21st major title, which puts him within one trophy of Rafael Nadal’s record of 22. At 35 years, 49 days, Djokovic is now the second oldest player to win the Wimbledon men’s title in the Open Era. Roger Federer’s win in 2017 still makes the Swiss veteran the oldest.
