2021 Berrettini
2016 Raonic

not completely sold on some of these picks but this is roughly where I'd place them

Think 12 Muzz played great and could very well be 2 sets to 0 up against a prime-ish Roger on grass.

2015 - Roger Federer: Beats anybody else
2014 - Roger Federer: Just worse
2012 - Andy Murray: Underrated, could have won.
2019 - Roger Federer: Double CP but also past prime Novak.
2013 - Novak Djokovic: Tired but also peak Andy
2022 - Nick Kyrgios: Serve and movement.
2021 - Matteo Berrettini: Easily exposed but also up against Novak.
2016 - Milos Raonic: Just limited, played above level in SF
2017 - Marin Cilic: Yes, better.
2018 - Kevin Anderson: Exhausted, already limited range.

2014 Federer
2012 Murray
2019 Federer
2013 Djokovic
2016 Raonic
2015 Federer
2021 Berrettini
2022 Kyrgios
2018 Anderson
2017 Cilic

Rough estimate as I don't remember some as well as others and I'm not in the mood to re-watch them all just for the sake of this topic but I think Federer in 2019 is criminally underrated as a performance. I think most will agree on 2014/2012 being highly ranked though.

I agree with the order of your bottom 4

But, but... I read on TT Kyrgios' performance would have given him the title against any other ATG...

It would absolutely grant him a win against Ned in the SF.

Too bad Ned went jet skiing.

Raonic GOAT

 

[tudwell]

2015 - Roger Federer: Wins most other recent years.
2012 - Andy Murray: One of his best Wimbledon performances. Forced Fed to pull out the entire toolbox.
2014 - Roger Federer: Great serving and all around solid, but not quite as crispy as in 15.
2019 - Roger Federer: Similar to 14, only worse in most areas.
2013 - Novak Djokovic: Honestly would need to rewatch this one to be sure, but seems he was pretty solid on return and from the baseline but lacked that extra gear.
2022 - Nick Kyrgios: Fantastic serving performance and solid elsewhere, though overmatched against a great like Novak.
2016 - Milos Raonic: Underrated. Only dropped serve once against return god Murray. Think he played about as well as he could, but Murray's return and passing game were on song that day and shut him down in the big moments.
2021 - Matteo Berrettini: Competed with heart all the way through but totally overmatched. A guy of Berrettini's size and serve shouldn't be getting broken six times in four sets.
2018 - Kevin Anderson: Fought well in the last set, I'll give him that.
2017 - Marin Cilic: lol

1. 2014 Federer
2. 2012 Murray = 2015 Federer
3. 2019 Federer
4. An absolutely huge gap
5. 2022 Kyrgios
6. 2021 Berrettini
7. 2016 Raonic
8. A slightly smaller gap
9. 2018 Anderson
10. One final gap
11. 2017 Cilic

 

[Twins2020]

1. 2019: best final I've ever seen
2. 2014: third best final I've ever seen
3. 2012: great match and Murray was awesome
4. 2013: good tennis from a tired Novak
5. 2022: Nick played well, but lost his mind on important moments
6. 2015: very below average tennis from Federer in this match especially off the ground, but great fight in second set to win it

The remainder of the matches were very poor and I will not comment on them.
