who won the men's single wimbledon 2017
2017 Wimbledon Championships – Men's Singles Roger Federer achieved his record eighth Wimbledon and 19th Grand Slam men's singles title, defeating Marin Čilić in the final, 6–3, 6–1, 6–4.[2] Federer thus became the only male player to win the Wimbledon singles title eight times,[3] as well as only the second man in the Open era, after Björn Borg in 1976, to win Wimbledon without losing a set. This was Federer's 70th appearance at a Grand Slam, tying the record for male players and a record-breaking 11th men's singles final at the same Grand Slam tournament.[4] In addition, by virtue of his third-round win over Mischa Zverev, Federer won his 317th Grand Slam singles match, surpassing Serena Williams' record of 316 match wins and giving him the all-time record for the most Grand Slam singles wins by any player, male or female. The tournament marked the fifth time that Nadal and Federer won the French Open and Wimbledon respectively in the same year.[5]

Andy Murray After strong grass court seasons in 2012 and 2013, Murray was seeded third for the 2014 Wimbledon Championship, behind Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, who were seeded first and second respectively.[236] He began his title defence with straight sets wins over David Goffin[237] and Blaž Rola, defeating the latter for the loss of just two games.[238] Murray continued his good form, defeating Roberto Bautista Agut[239] and Kevin Anderson,[240] the 27th and 20th seeds, again in straight sets to reach his seventh consecutive Wimbledon quarterfinal. Murray's defence then came to a halt as Grigor Dimitrov ended his 17 match winning-streak on the grass of Wimbledon (this includes the 2012 Olympics) with a straight sets win, meaning Murray failed to reach the semifinals for the first time since 2008.[241] After his defeat at the Championships, Murray dropped to No. 10, his lowest ranking since 2008.[242]
