The win moves Federer past both Pete Sampras and William Renshaw, who each won seven titles at the grass-court major, for the most men's titles in the history of the event first held in 1877.

Federer said:

"I always believed that I could maybe come back and do it again. And if you believe, you can go really, really far in your life, and I did that," 

"And I'm happy I kept on believing and dreaming, and here I am today for the eighth. It's fantastic."

Cilic said:

"I gave it my best, That's all I could do."
