Federer beats Aussie world No 47 4–6, 7–6, 6–4, 4–6, 7–6 (8)Third seed Tsitsipas crashes out to Raonic in straight setsRoger Federer pulled off an escape in Melbourne after a five-set epic against home hope John Millman to reach the fourth round of the
Australian Open.
Federer finally overcame the world No 47 4–6, 7–6, 6–4, 4–6, 7–6 (8). Federer looked to have escaped the danger when he recovered from a set down to lead by two sets to one but 30-year-old Millman, who beat the great Swiss at the
US Open in 2018, had other ideas.
