Following an absence of one year, Federer embarked on his 17th Basel campaign with a straight-sets win over young American Frances Tiafoe. Further victories over Benoît Paire, Adrian Mannarino and David Goffin set up a title showdown with Juan Martin Del Potro, in a rematch of the 2012-13 title matches which had gone the Argentinian's way.

Del Potro took the opening set on a tiebreak. But Federer dispelled the spectre of a third-straight Basel final defeat against the Argentine by taking the next two sets 6-4, 6-3 to seal his 8th Basel title.

It was Federer's seventh title of a fabulous comeback season which saw the Swiss maestro win the Australian Open and Wimbledon titles.

Federer was taken the distance in his tournament opener against Filip Krajinovic before dropping another set against Frenchman Gilles Simon in the quarterfinals. The latter was after a straight-sets win over Jan-Lennard Struff in the second round.

A straight-sets win over Daniil Medvedev in the last-four took Federer to a 14th title match in Basel, where he faced world No. 112 Marius Copil of Romania.

Despite a stern challenge from the Romanian, Federer edged out a tight match in straight sets, 7-6(5) 6-4, to lift the title at his hometown for a ninth time.

Federer dropped five games in his first two rounds against Peter Gojowczyk and Radu Albot before a walkover against good friend and compatriot Stan Wawrinka in the quarters took the Swiss maestro to a last-four showdown against his Australian Open conqueror Stefanos Tstisipas.

Federer conquered the World No. 7 in straight sets, 6-4 6-4, to reach a 15th Basel final, where Alex De Minaur awaited.

The former Basel ball-boy, in his first clash against the young Australian, dished out a tennis lesson, as a 6-2 6-2 victory in over an hour delivered a double-digit title haul at his hometown.
