<p>The third seed dropped just four games, winning the last nine on the trot, for a brutal 6-2 6-2 6-0 victory in just an hour and 21 minutes.</p>
<p>If Britain’s Dan Evans was feeling bad about the manner of his third-round defeat to Federer, he can surely take some comfort from the fact he won one more game than Goffin, the 15th seed.</p>
<p>Federer had looked susceptible in his opening two matches, dropping a set in both, but now he is cruising through the gears, motoring towards what looks likely to be another semi-final against Novak Djokovic.</p>

<p>Goffin, who actually broke Federer’s serve early in the first set, won just seven points in the third, the Swiss finishing him off with a stunning backhand pass down the line.</p>
<p>Federer, looking for a 21st grand slam title, said: <em>“David didn’t have his best day, he was struggling.</em></p>
<p><em>“I was down in the score early and I was getting to down on myself, but when I got up a break I felt he wasn’t playing the same way I know he can play.</em></p>
<div><em> “It was a great day and I’m very happy.”</em></div>
