Record-Setting Federer And Nadal Roll On

In the women’s section, World No. 1 Barty and former champions Serena and Kvitova make the last 16

- 

Roger Federer kept tennis statisticians on their toes on Saturday as he mopped up a few more records by tram­ pling all over Lucas Pouille’s dreams in a rip­roaring 7­5, 6­2, 7­6(4) win to reach the fourth round of Wimbledon.

The Swiss be­ came the first player — man or woman — to notch up 350 match wins at the Majors. He also set a pro­ fessional era record of reach­ing the last 16 for the 17th time — surpassing the pre­ vious benchmark he had shared with Jimmy Connors.

Rafael Nadal was in ruth­ less form as he marched into the fourth round with a 6­2, 6­3, 6­2 rout of France’s Jo­ Wilfried Tsonga in 108 minutes.
