This is Federer’s 20th Grand Slam title.

Back where his career resurgence began last year with an unexpected run to the title following a six-month injury layoff, Federer had an almost perfect title defense until he reached the second set of the final.

After going through four years without winning a major, Roger Federer has now won three of the last five.
