Roger Federer Sets Another Record To Become First Man To Win 300 Grand Slam Matches

SW Staff

One of the greatest players in tennis history, Roger Federer, has added another feather to his cap—becoming the first man to win 300 matches. He beat Grigor Dimitrov in four sets (6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4) in the third round of the ongoing Australian Open today.

Federer, at 34, is a decade older than the 27th seed Grigor Dimitrov.  He is also the oldest man to reach the round of 16 at the Australian Open since Andre Agassi played his way into the quarter-finals in 2005.

The tennis champion already has several records to his name.

Federer now needs just another six wins to break Martina Navratilova’s all-time record of most Grand Slam matches wins (306).
