Who did Djokovic beat in the 2022 Wimbledon men's singles final?

The story behind the answer

Djokovic beat Nick Kyrgios in the 2022 Wimbledon men’s singles final. He recovered after losing the opening set to win 4–6, 6–3, 6–4, 7–6(7–3).

The victory gave Djokovic his seventh Wimbledon singles title and his 21st major championship overall. It also extended his run of Wimbledon victories to four consecutive titles, placing him alongside a select group that included Björn Borg, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.

Kyrgios was an unusual finalist for a Grand Slam: he was unseeded and had never previously reached a major singles final. His powerful serve and unpredictable shot-making made him a dangerous opponent, and he took the first set before Djokovic steadily turned the match around.

This final is sometimes confused with the 2022 Wimbledon women’s final or with Djokovic’s 2021 Wimbledon final against Matteo Berrettini. The 2022 men’s championship match was specifically Djokovic versus Kyrgios.
