Here is another tennis legend who has fallen victim to the Federer bagel, as the Scot managed only a single game in the entire match. Roger went into the World Tour finals in great form, as he built serious momentum during the second half of 2014.

The former world No.1 generally prefers the indoor hardcourt season above all other surfaces as the conditions favour his fast and aggressive playing style. His victories in Shanghai, Cincinnati and Basel meant that Federer went into the tournament as one of the favourites.

Andy Murray, however, endured a tough 2014 both on and off the court. Murray’s decision that year to replace Ivan Lendl with former Wimbledon champion Amelie Mauresmo baffled many, considering the success that his partnership with Lendl had yielded. 2014 was the first time Murray had failed to reach a Grand Slam final in five years, as he struggled to make an impact on the grandest stages.

Roger Federer won the match 6-0, 6-1 in only 56 minutes, as he toyed with Murray for the majority of the match. This result raised further question marks over Andy’s partnership with Mauresmo and left him in a state of disarray.
