Roger Federer rallied from two sets down and staged an amazing comeback to knock off Tomas Berdych in five sets at the Australian Open. Federer’s 4-6, 6-7 (4-7), 6-4, 6-4, 6-2 fourth round victory places him into the quarterfinals and one step closer to tying Pete Sampras for most career Grand Slam victories.
Federer hammered out 20 aces in the match and collected 61 winners while breaking Berdych’s serve on 8 of 12 opportunities. Berdych looked like he would score the upset after jumping in front two sets but Federer remained calm and after evening the match at two sets apiece he dominated the final set.
With his title at the U.S. Open in 2008 Federer now has 13 Grand Slam singles titles, one shy of the record 14 Grand Slam singles titles held by Pete Sampras. Federer has won the Australian Open three times (most recently in 2007), Wimbledon five times and the U.S. Open five times.
