Roger Federer(37) has claimed a historic landmark in
his career after he won his 100th title with a 6-4, 6-4 victory against
Stefanos Tsitsipas at the Dubai Tennis Championships on Saturday March 02,2019
The 37-year-old Swiss and 20-time Grand Slam champion is only the second man in the Open era to reach the three-figure mark in accolades after American Jimmy Connors, who won 109 titles.
Roger Federer also avenged his shock defeat by 20-year-old Tsitsipas in the fourth round of the Australian Open in January
Roger Federer, who had been stuck on 99 titles since
triumphing at his hometown Basel tournament in October, broke Tsitsipas
in the first game of the match and saved two break points at 5-4 to
claim the first set in 36 minutes.
