TON-UP FEDERER

ROGER FEDERER won his

100th ATP Tour title at the Dubai Tennis Championships – 6,600 days after winning his first in Milan.

The Swiss legend, 37, beat Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-4 6-4. He is just the second man, after Jimmy Connors in 1983, to reach the landmark.

World No.11 Tsitsipas, 20, was Federer’s 50th different final opponent.

Nick Kyrgios reached his first ATP final since January

2018 with a three-set win over John Isner in the Mexico Open.

He will face world No.3 Alexander Zverev today.
