Second seed and 2009 champion Roger Federer is out of the French Open after a 6-4 6-3 7-6 (7-4) defeat to Stan Wawrinka in an all-Swiss quarter-final.

Wawrinka, 30, had lost all four of their previous matches at Grand Slam tournaments.

But the number eight seed overcame his 33-year-old Davis Cup team-mate to cause an upset at Roland Garros.

Wawrinka will meet home favourite Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the semi-finals following his win over Kei Nishikori.

Tsonga overcame a fightback by his Japanese opponent to win 6-1 6-4 4-6 3-6 6-3. — AFP
