Roger Federer has delivered a tennis masterclass to send Nick Kyrgios out of the US Open in New York. The 20-times grand slam champion produced some breathtaking shot-making at times in sweeping past Kyrgios 6-4, 6-1, 7-5 in their much-hyped third-round showdown at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Men stopped them from playing, insults were hurled as they trained, their boots were vandalised, and they couldn’t afford gear that fit. In the lead up to the 2000 Olympics, keen to lift their profile, they even agreed to pose for a nude calendar. The obstacles might have defeated others, …
