Federer beats Tsonga to win 6th ATP finals title (AP)

LONDON ? Roger Federer held off a resilient Jo-Wilfried Tsonga on Sunday to win a record sixth ATP World Tour Finals title with a 6-3, 7-6 (6), 6-3 victory at the season-ending tournament.

Federer failed to serve out the match at 5-4 in the second set, then wasted a match point in the tiebreaker as Tsonga threatened to stage another improbable comeback against the former No. 1.

Tsonga became the first player to rally from a two-set deficit to beat Federer in a Grand Slam tournament in this year's Wimbledon quarterfinals, but the hard-serving Frenchman couldn't pull off another surprise this time.

Playing in his 100th career final, Federer broke for a 5-3 lead in the decider and served out the match to love, sealing his 70th career title with an easy volley.
