Brisbane, Jan 11 (IBNS): Swiss Tennis icon Roger Federer claimed his 1000th match win by defeating Milos Raonic in the final of the Brisbane International here on Sunday.

Federer defeated his opponent from Monaco by 6-4, 6-7(2), 6-4.

He joined stars like Jimmy Connors and Ivan Lendl to achieve the feat in the Open Era.

"Looking back, it's almost nicer winning this way through a tight match with nerves and humid conditions against a great player in a final," Federer was quoted as saying by atpworldtour.com.
