The first set was a topsy-turvy affair, with both players quickly into their groove on serve before a succession of breaks. - Service breaks -Federer, buoyed by his customary vocal support, broke to lead 4-3, only to lose his momentum immediately as Anderson levelled. Now playing with freedom, the 37-year-old broke again to seal the victory and guarantee that he tops the group. The world number one, aiming for a sixth ATP Finals title to pull level with Federer, plays Cilic on Friday while Zverev takes on Isner.
