Sydney, Australia (GenevaLunch) - Swiss star Roger Federer displayed his best tennis of the tournament as he swept past his countryman Stanislas Wawrinka 6-1,6-3, 6-3 in the quarter-finals of the Australian Open, 25 January. He conceded only one break-point as he put 70% of his serves in, and broke Wawrinka’s serve five times. Wawrinka was a shadow of the man who dominated Andy Roddick in the previous round but with Federer serving as well as he did there was little chance of an upset.
