With his Australian Open win over Marin Cilic on Sunday, Roger Federer extended his all-time men's singles Grand Slam record to 20.

The victory also ties Federer with Roy Emerson and Novak Djokovic for the most Australian men's titles (six).

Emerson. Djokovic. Federer. 6 x Australian Open crowns apiece. Astonishing then, incredible now.

The tennis world, as usual, was ecstatic for him.

Federer is still 36 years young.

Thanks for repping 36 year olds with a dream, Roger Federer. 🏆

Then there was Hyeon Chung, who had a breakthrough fortnight despite needing to retire against Federer in the semifinals.
