Tennis living legend Roger Federer achieved a rare feat on Saturday as he became the second male player to win 100 ATP Titles. The Swiss defeated Greek 20-year-old Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-4, 6-4 in straight sets to do so and Twitterati couldn’t help but being all praise for him. The detailed match report can be read here.
Roger Federer won his first ATP Title way back in 4th February 2001 when he got the better ofΒ Frenchman Julien Boutter at the Milan Indoors. Little did the tennis lovers know that the then 19-year-old would go on to win 100 ATP titles. On Monday, when the rankings would be updated, Roger Federer will climb three places to become the new World No. 4.
