Men’s third-round result:

R Federer (Swi) bt J Tipsarevic (Ser)

6-7 (5-7) 7-6 (7-1) 5-7 6-1 10-8

Federer 10-8 Tipsarevic
Federer has a couple of dodgy moments with errant groundstrokes but converts his second match point at 40-30 to claim a truly dramatic victory. I need a lie down.

Federer 9-8 Tipsarevic
A fizzing off-forehand winner takes Tipsy to 40-0 and I'm starting to feel a bit tipsy myself, or at least light-headed. From nowhere, Tipsarevic starts to falter ands Federer is back at deuce when the Serb puts a backhand long, but at break point he comes up with a huge forehand. Federer forces another break point with a hooked forehand cross-court pass and this time he converts when Tipsarevic cannot get enough on a lunging backhand volley. Incredible stuff.

Federer 8-8 Tipsarevic
Federer races through another service game - Roddick and El Aynaoui went to 21-19 in a fifth set a few years back. Lordy.
