Djokovic defeats Federer in Basel Final
This one's gotta hurt. World #4 Novak Djokovic defeated World #1 Roger Federer 6-4 4-6 6-2 in the final of Swiss Indoor championships in Federer's hometown of Basel. Djokovic won his tour-leading 71st match of the year and 4th title. Federer fell to 59-9 and lost in the deciding set in a final for the 3rd time this year (Australian Open final to Radael Nadal, U.S. Open final to Juan Martin del Potro and now to Djokovic). He was also attemptig to win his hometown tournament where he had served as a ball boy as youth for the fourth consecutive year.
