Australian Open: Federer beats Cilic for 20th major title


​Roger Federer has won his 20th Grand Slam singles title with a 6-2, 6-7 (5), 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 victory over Marin Cilic in the Australian Open final. After going through four years without winning a major, Federer has now won three of the last five. The fifth started with Federer fending off two break points to hold, then breaking Cilic for a 2-0 lead. I had a slight chance at the beginning of the fifth, but Roger played a great fifth set." Federer had won eight of their previous nine matches — his only defeat coming in the semifinals of the U.S. Open in 2014, where Cilic claimed his first major title.
