A significant part of the Djokovic–Federer rivalry, it pitted defending champion Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer against each other in a Grand Slam final for the third time, a rematch of the Wimbledon final a year earlier in which Djokovic defeated Federer in five sets. Before the match, Federer led the head-to-head 20 matches to 19, with the two players tied one to one on grass and one to one in Grand Slam finals.[1]
This was the first time the top two seeds had met in a men's Grand Slam final since the 2014 French Open, which pitted Rafael Nadal (1) against Djokovic (2).
