Roger Federer subdued Tomas Berdych 3-6 6-4 6-3 in the final to win the Dubai Championship on Saturday, the Swiss maestro’s 78th singles title.
Federer, who also recovered from a set down to stun world number two Novak Djokovic in Friday’s semi-finals, again struggled early on but dug deep to claim a sixth Dubai crown.
Berdych, 28, went into the final on an 11-match winning streak.
