federerTop seed Roger Federer is on course for a seventh title at his home tournament in Basel.

Federer was given a slight scare by David Goffin before he prevailed 6-3 3-6 6-1 to reach the Swiss Indoors semi-finals.

The first set against Goffin flew by with Federer at his clinical best, taking the one break point on offer while saving two on his serve.

Federer’s semi-final opponent will be Jack Sock after the American overcame compatriot, Donald Young, 5-7 6-4 6-2.
