Tsonga halts Fed Express in French Open

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga produced one of the best performances of his career to defeat Roger Federer and keep alive hopes of a home winner at the French Open.

Not since Yannick Noah 30 years ago has a Frenchman lifted the Coupe des Mousquetaires, but Tsonga showed he will be a tough man to beat with a thumping 7-5 6-3 6-3 victory over Federer to reach his first semi-final at Roland Garros.
