New Delhi: Two-time defending champion Roger Federer on Sunday was knocked out of the Australian Open as he was beaten in four sets 6-7 7-6 7-5 7-6 by Stefanos Tsitsipas.
Stefanos Tsitsipas knocked out Federer to reach his first quarterfinal in Australian Open.

The result may come to symbolise the changing of the guard with Tsitsipas now facing Roberto Bautista-Agut for a place in the semi-finals.
What an effort!
