Fed Express survives huge test to stay on track

ROGER FEDERER feared the worst before coming through the most testing of Wimbledon openers against Colombia’s Alejandro Falla on Centre Court.

But that was exactly what looked set to happen as the world number 60 took the opening two sets and then had three break points to put himself in position to serve for the match.
