Federer beaten by world No 114

Roger Federer was stunned by Argentine qualifier Federico Delbonis, the world No 114, in the Hamburg claycourt semifinals on Saturday as the 17-time Grand Slam title winner suffered another worrying loss. The former world No 1 went down 7-6 (7), 7-6 (4) to the 22-year-old Delbonis, just a month after Federer was knocked out of Wimbledon by Ukraine's world No 116 Sergiy Stakhovsky in the second round.
