Best Wimbledon match from 2000's

[lud]

Grass,grass,grass...


Honorouble mentions:
2001 4.R, Federer vs Sampras in 4.Round ( I have tough time between this and Phillipoussis/Agassi match, but I think Flipper vs Agassi was much quality better.)
2005 Roddick vs T.Johansson in Semi-Final
2007 Gasquet vs Roddick in QF
2009 Roddick vs Hewitt in QF
2011 Nadal vs Del Potro in 4.Round
2011 Tsonga vs Federer in QF
2012 Federer vs Djokovic in SF
2013 Murray vs Verdasco in QF
2015 Gasquet vs Wawrinka in QF (battle of one handed backhands! beauty)

Hard choice really. Quality(2007 final),Drama(2001 final), personal favourite(2013 semi)-don't ask why
Voted 2008 final though,it is the most balanced between drama and level of play

All England Club.

I'm probably in few group of people who thinks that 208 wasn't that great. Why? Because Nadal just outplayed Federer in whole match. Federer was so tight during match.In my opinion 2007 was better.
By far this is toughest to choice. 2009 Final is obviously cause 16-14 last set. 2000/2001 semis Pat vs Andre was apsolutely legendary..2001 Final is clearly most dramatic,but not that quality. Tough,tough and tough. I'll go with 2000 semis. Classic. Booth players at their best.Contrast of still.

how do you not mention the 2004 final....Quality wise that is there with any match this decade it lacked a 5th set which maybe knocks it down a little but it's the 2011 RG semi of grass matches.

Regardless, my choices are that match, the 00 semi, 07 and 08 finals, and maybe the 13 semi. Of those I would pick the 07 final

Why? And for Drama., nothing beats 2001 SF and Final matches.NOTHING.

Rafter-Agassi 2000. Tactical masterclass from Rafter. Used the surface to neutralise Agassi's power and force him to the net. Brilliant! You could likewise point to Fed doing something on similar lines against Nole in the 2012 semi but Fed has all the power and an amazing repertoire. Rafter had to use his guile to bridge the gap in power with players like Agassi which makes it more remarkable imo.

Federer - Murray 2012 was also a high quality match, higher than the SF between Fed and Novak.

Rafter vs goran, it was such a feel good moment , his whole Wimbledon run was such a dramatic.
As above poster said Rafter vs Agassi was also good.

2008 Wimbledon was just drama. 2007 was the better quality final. Hard not to pick the Rafter Agassi encounters as well.
