Roger Federer has delivered a tennis masterclass to send Nick Kyrgios crashing out of the US Open in New York.
The 20-times grand slam champion produced some at-times breathtaking shot-making in sweeping past Kyrgios 6-4 6-1 7-5 in their much hyped third-round showdown at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Federer’s emphatic victory set up a last-16 meeting with another Australian, unseeded journeyman John Millman, on Monday.
