| Federer makes history at Wimbledon |
The 30-year-old now has a total of 17 Grand Slams, and has restored his world number one ranking.
On the other side of the net some 17 million people shared Andy Murray's tears after he lost his dramatic Wimbledon match yesterday - the highest figure for any final at the tournament for more than 20 years.
It is thought to be the biggest tennis audience since at least 1990 as the nation united to watch the Scot's nailbiting Centre Court battle with Roger Federer.
At the peak of the match, an audience of 16.9 million was tuning in, overnight figures showed today. That amounted to two-thirds of the TV audience at that time, as the tournament reached its climax.
Murray, 25, will today be reflecting on the highest profile match of his professional career after he lost 4-6 7-5 6-3 6-4 to Swiss Federer.
