Roger Federer turned his 100th Wimbledon match into an exhibition as he outclassed Milos Raonic 6‑4 6‑2 7‑6 to reach the semi‑finals for a record 12th time.

The Swiss, who turns 36 next month, played his best tennis of the tournament to dismantle the big‑serving Canadian who knocked him out at the semi‑final stage last year.

Federer has yet to drop a set in the tournament this year and with defending champion Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and Rafa Nadal all out he is a huge favourite to become the first man to win the Wimbledon title eight times.

He will play Czech Tomas Berdych, the 11th seed, in the last four.
