20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer suffered a huge blow as he knocked out of the 2019 Australian Open after going down against Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas in the fourth round of the men’s singles event at the Melbourne Park on Sunday. 

After losing the first set narrowly, Tsitsipas rebounded strongly to clinch a 6-7, 7-6, 7-5, 6-5 triumph over Federer in a thrilling last-16 clash that lasted three hours and 45 minutes on Rod Laver Arena.

In a high-octane clash, defending champion Federer was left to rue 12 missed break point chances as his forehand let him down as and when it mattered the most. The Swiss tennis maestro made a total of  55 unforced errors during the match.
