Australian Open | Melbourne
Roger Federer's chances of winning a third consecutive Australian Open title were ended as 20-year-old Stefanos Tsitsipas came of age on Rod Laver Arena.
The Greek, who was not born when Federer made his professional debut, has rapidly established himself as one of the most exciting up-and-coming talents in the game and backed it up spectacularly with a 6-7 (11) 7-6 (3) 7-5 7-6 (5) victory to move through to a first grand slam quarter-final.
Rafael Nadal defeated Tomas Berdych in straight sets to progress to the quarter-finals, while Roger Federer tests himself against crowd favourite Stephanos Tsitsipas.
Petra Kvitova defeated the American Amanda Anisimova in straight set on Rod Laver in the first match of the day, while Maria Sharapova was knocked out by Australian Ashleigh Barty.
American Sloane Stephens closes proceedings on the court, while Marin Cillic and Roberto Bautista Agut entertain the Margaret Court Arena crowd.
