The world number one broke the Swiss player’s serve six times during the course of the match to power through to a 6-4, 5-7, 6-4, 6-4 victory at Flushing Meadows.
Difficult start
Rain delayed the New York match by three hours and Federer, with much of the crowd at Flushing Meadows behind him, looked in with a chance of taking the title.
But the 28-year-old Serb held his nerve and turned the tables to fight
through to his 27th win of 28 Grand Slam matches in 2015.
