Fantastic Federer has sights set on completing ‘slam’

AUSTRALIAN Open champion Roger Federer had hardly wiped away the tears after winning his second Melbourne crown before he turned his attention to Paris.

Federer was an emotional wreck when he received the Norman Brookes Challenge Cup from Rod Laver in the stadium named after the great Australian following a 5-7 7-5 6-0 6-2 win over unseeded Cypriot Marcos Baghdatis in yesterday’s final.

Laver was the last man to hold all four grand slams simultaneously and now Federer has the chance to emulate him.
