Federer clips an ace out wide for 15-0. He’s so close now. He moves to 30-0, Cilic sending a forehand wide. Cilic misses another forehand. Here come three championship points. We’re on the verge of seeing history made. Federer misses a first serve. He sends the second to the Cilic backhand, though, and the Croatian can’t do anything with his return. Cilic challenges, but the ball was in. It’s all over! Federer embraces Cilic, accepts the acclaim of the crowd and then sits down for another good old weep. He’s won his sixth Australian Open title and his 20th grand slam title! He’s 36 years old.

He has now become the first to reach the 20s landmark in the men's category, Rafael Nadal follows behind with 15 Grand slams.

A true legend and a GOAT

The legend that makes others legends. He is not out yet. He has led other great in his era to the top of the sport and as it is Roger Federer is leading them back to retirement. Extraordinary!!!! He has completely retool his game so much.

He is badass

Cilic made it a worthy final. Fed didn't drop any set before the final. He made him dropped two sets in the final. As for Federer, he did not even need this final to prove he's the greatest. He has done that over and over again. More slams on the way for him.

I actually thought this to be fp worthy, unfortunately, it never made front page.
