17-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer produced yet another dominating performance as he brushed aside Steve Johnson of America to race into the quarter-finals of the men's singles event here at Wimbledon on Monday.
The Swiss maestro trounced his American opponent Johnson 6-2, 6-3 ,7-5 in the fourth-round contest that lasted for one hour and 37 minutes.
With the win, the third-seed also equaled Jimmy Connors' Open-era record by reaching his 14th Wimbledon quarter-final.
Federer will now face Croatia's Marin Cilic, the 2009 U.S. Open champion, for a place in the semi-finals.
