Roger Federer has won a record eighth Wimbledon title.
The Swiss tennis star became the tournament’s oldest champion on Sunday, with a straight-sets victory over injury-hit Marin Cilic.
Federer won 6-3 6-1 6-4 leaving Cilic in tears midway through the game.
The 35-year-old has now won 19 Grand Slams and is Wimbledon’s oldest men’s winner of the modern era, succeeding Arthur Ashe, who was almost 32 when he won in 1976.
It is also Federer’s second in three majors this year, after sweeping to a fifth Australian Open in January following a six-month absence.
