MIAMI: Roger Federer edged closer to his fourth ATP and WTA Miami Open title on Wednesday , swatting aside Russia's Daniil Medvedev 6-4 6-2 in only 61 minutes.
But in front of a packed center court, Swiss legend Federer rolled back the years with a dominant display to serve notice of his intent to land his 101st career title in Sunday's final. And he expects the best in the quarter-finals from Anderson despite the South African's recent right elbow injury."I am happy to see Kevin playing again after his injury problems," Federer said."He's one of the best servers in the world."
Halep needs only to reach Saturday's final at Hard Rock Stadium to knock Naomi Osaka from atop the women's rankings despite the Japanese star winning her second major title in this year's Australian Open.
