Aisam ul haq

Pakistan's tennis ace Aisam Ul Haq Qureshi and his Swiss doubles

partner James Cerritani brushed aside tennis great and world number

one, Roger Federer and his Swiss compatriot Marco Chiudinelli in

straight sets at the Basel Open in the Swiss city on Tuesday. Qureshi

was at his serve-and-volleying best in the round-of-32 match as he and

Swiss Cerritani cruised to victory against the world number one

Federer and Chidudinelli in two sets, 6-4, 6-3 to book their place in

the quarter-finals of the 2.6 million-dollar ATP tournament.

Playing in the world number one's hometown, the Pakistani player and

his partner were in control of the match from the first game and

although Federer and his old friend Chiudinelli produced moments of

brilliance, the grit and powerful serve-and-volley game of Qureshi and

Cerritani proved too much in the end.

The Pak-Swiss pair will now play tournament first seeds Daniel Nestor

(Canada) and Nenad Zimonjic (Serbia) in the round of 16.
