Federer dismisses Tsonga in revenge match to reach semis
Roger Federer avenged his loss to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga at Wimbledon this year when he beat the Frenchman 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 on Thursday to reach the semi-finals of the U.S. Open and give himself a chance of a sixth title at Flushing Meadows.

Showing no signs of slowing down in his first grand slam tournament as a 30-year-old, Federer used his serve as a lethal weapon, whipped angled winners with his groundstrokes and played superbly at the net.
