===Hewitt vs Federer=== Hewitt and [[Roger Federer]] played each other on 27 occasions. Early in their careers, Hewitt dominated Federer, winning seven of their first nine meetings, including a victory from two sets down in the 2003 Davis Cup semi-final, which allowed Australia to defeat Switzerland. However, from 2004 onward, Federer dominated the rivalry, winning 16 of the last 18 meetings to finish with an 18–9 overall head-to-head record.<ref>[http://www.atpworldtour.com/Players/Head-To-Head.aspx?pId=F324&oId=H432 ATP HEAD2HEAD Roger Federer/Lleyton Hewitt] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100126074951/http://www.atpworldtour.com/Players/Head-To-Head.aspx?pId=F324&oId=H432 |date=26 January 2010 }} [[Association of Tennis Professionals]]. Retrieved 28 January 2015.</ref> This is Hewitt's longest rivalry as these two first played each other as juniors in 1996. They met in one Grand Slam final, the 2004 US Open final, where Federer won his first US Open title in a lopsided encounter in which Federer won the first and third sets 6–0 and the second set on a tiebreak. Federer met Hewitt at six of the Grand Slam tournaments in which he lifted the trophy, including all five of his triumphs between 2004 and 2005. Their last meeting was at the [[2014 Brisbane International]], where Hewitt triumphed over Federer in three sets, for his first title since 2010, when he also beat Federer to the [[2010 Gerry Weber Open|Halle]] title. Hewitt and Federer teamed up in the men's doubles at Wimbledon in [[1999 Wimbledon Championships – Men's doubles|1999]]. They got to the third round before losing to [[Jonas Björkman]] and [[Pat Rafter]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-06-28/federer-praises-hewitt-on-the-eve-of-his-final-wimbledon/6578372|title=Wimbledon: Lleyton Hewitt praised by Roger Federer ahead of SW19 finale|newspaper=ABC News|publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation|date=27 June 2015|access-date=8 July 2016|archive-date=16 July 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160716012557/http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-06-28/federer-praises-hewitt-on-the-eve-of-his-final-wimbledon/6578372|url-status=live}}</ref>
