“It’s really hard to describe this with any words except as the best day of my life, the most special day of my life, This is my favourite tournament, the tournament I always dreamed of winning, the first tournament I ever watched in my life. I think I’m still sleeping, I’m still having my dream. When you’re playing the best player in the world, Rafael Nadal, who has won two out of the last three Wimbledons and he has always been winning the big matches against me in the Grand Slams, I had to be on the top of my game, I had to play my best. I think I played probably my best match on the grass courts ever.” Novak Djokovic
“It’ was very exciting for me and very emotional for me also,” Nadal
“It was a match for Africa, this money is going to kids in Africa — so I’m so proud and so happy that we all made it work, so thanks again to everybody.” Federer
“Firstly, I have to congratulate Rafa for his fifth victory. If you continue to play like this you will for sure have chances to win many more. I will come back next year. See you next year” Soderling.
“I played my best match against you, If not, it’s going to be impossible to beat you.” Nadal
“I know so many guys of you were supporting Nadal – I’m sorry about this one! I tried to play my best tennis. Nadal always fights and he started to play better. It was tough.” Davydenko
“That’s sport. You have some better moments, some bad moments. When you have the bad moments, you have to work to improve.” Nadal
“I think I didn’t play really bad, I played OK, But in the important moments I didn’t have the necessary calm – I played shorter in the important moments. That’s the reason he beat me.” Nadal
“Especially today, I managed to play really well on the important points which is something you have to do if you want to beat the top guys.” Soderling
“I cannot believe it. I’m enjoying this. Beating Djokovic and Nadal is something amazing.” Davydenko said.
