Tsitsipas after defeating Federer: 'I am the happiest man in the world'

feels overwhelmed for his fourth round match win over at the Australian Open. Speaking to John McEnroe in Melbourne during a on-court interview, the Swiss said: I had an aggressive mindset from the start, stayed in the moment, got first serves in and tried to press.

I didnt lose my patience and that was the key. I showed fighting spirit and had most of the crowd supporting me. I havent seen such a large crowd all my life. The atmosphere, the vibes and the energy shown to Roger and me today was indescribable.

Tsitsipas added: Theres nothing I can describe it to. I am the happiest man on earth. From the beginning I went in believing in myself and my abilities. Roger is a legend, he showed such a good tennis over the years, Ive been analysing him since the age of six, and this is a dream to face him.

Winning this – I cannot describe it. The 17-time doubles Grand Slam winner Mark Woodforde said: Federer didnt play a bad match. It was the inspired play of Tsitsipas who from the start played to a great level.

He gave his all and its a thoroughly deserving victory. Weve seen the changing of the guard. ALSO READ: Rafael Nadal: Worse players than David Ferrer won a Grand Slam title
