Seventeen-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer crashed out to little-known Spaniard Albert Ramos-Vinolas in a major second-round shock at the Shanghai Masters on Tuesday.
Defending title-holder Federer was stunned 7-6 (7/4), 2-6, 6-3 by the Spanish world number 70, who is yet to claim his first career title and has only won three matches in total at the Grand Slam tournaments.
The 34-year-old Swiss gave a thin smile and a wave to the crowd as he exited the Qi Zhong Stadium, where he lifted the trophy last year and also won the Tennis Masters Cup in 2006 and 2007. – AFP
