  (Reuters) - Roger Federer left the door tantalizinglyajarfor local hero Andy Murray in the Wimbledon men's singles final on Sunday, then slammedit shut to win a record-equaling seventh Wimbledon title and in so doing return to the top of the world rankings.

  The Swiss great, contesting his eighth final at the All England Club, flirted with danger in the second set after losing the first but just when Murray looked like ending 76 years of plucky British failure Federer gave a stunningreminder of his genius to win 4-6 7-5 6-3 6-4 on Centre Court.

  When a Murray forehand loopednarrowly wide after three hours 24 minutes of enthrallingaction, Federer dropped to the turfin joy, just as he did in 2003 when he beat Australia's Mark Philippoussis to begin a grand slam collection that now stands at 17.

  For the second time in three grand slam finals against Murray he reduced the Scot to tears, although this match, unlike the others, was a contest to savor.

  It was only after Centre Court's translucent lid was slid across after heavy rain began to fall in the heart of the final that Federer took charge, stridingto the win that puts him level with Pete Sampras's record of seven Wimbledon crowns.

  At 30 years and 335 days he also became the oldest men's champion since Arthur Ashe in 1975 and, to put the icing on the cake, Monday's ATP rankings will show him back at No. 1 for the first time in two years and he will equal Sampras's record of 286 weeks at the summit.

  "I played some of my best tennis in the last couple of matches," Federer said after raising the trophy with his wife Mirka and giggling twin daughters Charlene Riva and Myla Rose watching on from the players' box.

  "I've missed playing in the finals, and it feels like a great moment. I've gone through some struggles, so this one comes at the right time," added Federer, whose last grand slam title was at the 2010 Australian Open.

  For Murray, his girlfriend Kim Sears and many of the thousands watching the huge screen on Henman Hill under a forest of multi-colored umbrellas, there was just despair.

  "I'm getting closer," Murray, whose valianteffort was watched by Royal Box guests Prime Minister David Cameron, David Beckham and Prince William's wife Kate Middleton, choked as applause rang out.

  "I was told after my semi-final that this was my best chance, Roger's 30 now, but he's not bad for a 30-year-old, he played a great tournament. Congratulations, you deserve it."

  北京时间7月9日(伦敦当地时间8日)消息,2012年温布尔登网球锦标赛结束落幕日压轴大戏的男单决赛争夺,瑞士天王费德勒在先丢一盘的劣势下,以强大的正手攻击性摧毁了穆雷力求成为76年以来第一位本土夺冠英国球员的梦想,以总比分4-6/7-5/6-3/6-4逆转胜出,追平前辈巨星桑普拉斯在全英俱乐部7夺金杯的纪录,携个人第17座大满贯赛桂冠时隔2年多(自2010年6月7日)之后重返世界排名第一,迫使老对手德约科维奇与纳达尔分别退居二、三位。

  此外,重登No.1王座的费德勒也就此追平桑普拉斯的另一项纪录,即从下周一开始,他排名世界第一的周数将与后者同样达到排名历史第一的第286周,而随后打破这个纪录也已经是不在话下。与此同时,截止目前30岁零335天的费德勒也成为继33岁零131天的阿加西之后,保有男子网坛世界第一头衔“第二老”的选手。

  费德勒在半决赛复仇德约科维奇之后,第八次打进了温网男单决赛,而穆雷同样是四盘战胜特松加,成为继1938年的奥斯汀之后第一位能够闯进决赛的本土选手。在两人此前的15次交手中,英国小子保持八胜七负略占上风,双方此前两次大满贯比赛中的交手全部发生在决赛,费德勒在08年美网和10年澳网(微博)决赛都是直落三盘战胜对手。

  首盘比赛穆雷以一个破发优势6-4占得先机,让英国人看到胜利的希望。然而费德勒并没有让英国人高兴太久,第二、第三盘中强势的正手攻击几近击碎英国76年第一个本土大满贯的梦想。第四盘中费德勒率先破发取得4-2的领先,并一路保持到终场。最终凭借强势的攻击迫使穆雷回球出界,顺利拿下比赛,从而获得第七个温网男单冠军金杯。
