Federer smashes his way into French Open last sixteen
Federer had a chance to close out the match in the third set when he took Massu’s serve to take a 6-5 lead but failed to win his game and lost the tie break.
Federer will next face 20th seed Tomas Berdych, who qualified to the last 16 following Nicolas Kiefer’s left wrist injury.
