By , Reporter
Roger Federer claims a second British scalp in as many matches at Wimbledon after recording a 6-4 6-2 6-2 win over Dan Evans on Friday.

Roger Federer has dispatched of his second British opponent in as many matches at Wimbledon after claiming a 6-4 6-2 6-2 win over Dan Evans.

Having ended the Marcus Willis fairytale on Thursday, the 17-time Grand Slam champion raced into a 4-0 lead in the opening set, and though Evans pegged him back to 4-3, he was able to close it out.

Federer then won the first four games of the second set and never looked back as he raced through to victory against his plucky opponent.

It was Federer's 150th Tour win on grass as the 34-year-old bids to become the oldest man in the Open Era to win Wimbledon.
