Rodger Federer Wins 16th Grand Slam Title

Roger Federer dismantled Andy Murray in the Australian Open final Sunday to extend his own record to 16 Grand Slam titles.

Federer cruised as he collected his fourth Australian Open title with a 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 win at Rod Laver Arena. Except for the tiebreaker, the match lacked the drama and raw emotion of his five-set loss here last year to then No. 1-ranked Rafael Nadal.

In fact, the match we just plan boring, Federer dominated from start to finish, Murray was never really in it. Even if the Brit could have pulled out the third set tiebreaker, he still could not have come all the way back to win the match.

It was good that Federer stopped the bleeding early.

Federer dropped serve only twice in the match and hit 46 winners. He said he felt as good as ever.
