Defending champion Novak Djokovic defeated Roger Federer in the final, 7–6(7–5), 1–6, 7–6(7–4), 4–6, 13–12(7–3) to win the gentlemen's singles tennis title at the 2019 Wimbledon Championships. At four hours and 57 minutes in length, it was the longest singles final in Wimbledon history.[1] It was Djokovic's fifth Wimbledon title and 16th major title overall. Djokovic became the first man since Bob Falkenburg in 1948 to win the title after being championship points down, having saved two when down 7–8 in the fifth set.[2] This was the first time since the 2004 French Open that a man saved championship points in order to win a major. Djokovic became the second man and third singles player overall to win multiple major titles after saving match point during the tournament, after Rod Laver and Serena Williams.[3] Conversely, this was the third time that an opponent of Federer saved match points and went on to win the major, following Marat Safin in the 2005 Australian Open and Djokovic in the 2011 US Open.

At this tournament, Federer reached his 31st and last men's singles major final, a record which would be surpassed by Djokovic in 2022. Federer's semifinal meeting with Rafael Nadal marked their 40th and final professional meeting, with Federer winning in four sets to end their head-to-head at 24–16 in Nadal's favor. Aged 37 years, 11 months and 6 days, Federer became the oldest man to reach a major final since Ken Rosewall in the 1974 US Open.[4] It is also the last major, and tournament overall, in which all of the Big Three made it to the semifinals.[5]

This was the first edition of Wimbledon in which a final-set tiebreak rule was introduced. Upon reaching 12–12 in the fifth set, a classic tiebreak would be played. The men's singles final was the first singles match at Wimbledon in which the new rule came into effect, with Djokovic winning the tiebreak 7–3. Additionally, it was the first men's singles final at any major to feature a final-set, championship-deciding tiebreak.

This tournament marked the final professional appearance for former Australian Open finalist Marcos Baghdatis; he lost in the second round.[6] Stan Wawrinka was attempting to complete the career grand slam, but lost in five sets to Reilly Opelka in the second round.
