No tiebreak in the last set of Wimbledon.

Federer’s serve was just too much for Roddick in the final set, he didn’t even come close to breaking him.

Thanks, back in the old days, there was no tiebreakers. Imagine 5 sets, and having to win each set by at least 2.

Endurance was much more of a factor say in Laver's day.
