Federer, who retired in 2022, was one of the most successful players in New York. He won five US Open titles, a joint record in the Open Era he holds with Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors. He wrested insane dominance at Flushing Meadows as he won all five of his titles consecutively from 2004 to 2008. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
