He is, after all, getting familiar with the honor: Grand Slam tournament champion. Roger Federer climbs to No.1 after Australian Open victory Georgia Tech clinches victory Playing shrewd and confident tennis that has left him at No.1, Federer won the Australian Open 7-6(3), 6-4, 6-2 Sunday against a weary and frustrated Marat Safin. Federer has captured two of the last three majors following his Wimbledon triumph. "I feel like I'm living the game when I'm out there," the Swiss star said. "When a a guy is going to hit the ball, I know exactly the angles and the spins. I just feel that I've got that figured out." It was enough to end Safin's great run The unseeded Russian beat top-seeded Andy Roddick in the quarterfinals, then stopped defending champion Andre Agassi's 26-match winning streak at the Australian Open in the semis. But after more than 18 hours and 27 sets in six rounds, Safin had little left. Federer clearly was fresher, having spent just more than 10 hours on court and losing only two sets. The Associated Press ATLANTA - B.J. Elder scored a career-high 36 points to lead No.14 Georgia Tech to a 76-69 victory over Clemson on Tuesday night, hardly resembling the guy who was shooting less than 31 percent in Atlantic Coast Conference games. Elder had 20 points in the first half and surpassed his previous career best of 25 with nearly 10 minutes remaining. By the end, he had the most points by a Georgia Tech player since James Forrest scored 36 against Maryland in 1994. The Yellow Jackets (16-3, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) bounced back from a weekend loss at North Carolina State, handing Clemson (8-10, 1-6 Atlantic Coast Conference) its fourth straight defeat. Elder connected on 12 of 20 shots from the field, including six 3-pointers. Marvin Lewis, with 11, was the only teammate in double figures. Elder finished one point shy of the school record for points in an ACC game, a 37-point effort by Dennis Scott in 1990. Still, it was the highest-scoring game by an ACC player this season, surpassing 30 by Florida State's Tim Pickett in an upset of North Carolina. Shawan Robinson led Clemson with 21 points, and Sharrod Ford added 19. BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — A.J. Moye scored 15 points and Roderek Wilmont added all six of his points on a pair of three pointers in the final minute, leading Indiana to an upset of No. 21 Purdue. Indiana surprises Purdue The Hoosiers (11-6, 5-1) defeated a ranked team for the first time this season. They remained atop the Big Ten standings by beating the rival Boilermakers at home for the fourth straight time. Purdue (14-5, 4-2) dropped out of a first-place tie with Indiana and Wisconsin. The Boilermakers were led by Kenneth Lowe who had 13 points despite not playing the last 15 minutes because of an injured left elbow. Wilmont was the surprise star. His 3-pointer with 58 seconds left gave Indiana a 59-55 lead. After David Teague answered with a 3 for Purdue, Wilmont hit a 3 from the corner to make it 62-58 and seal the victory. Alabama loses to Florida, despite effort by Winston TUSCALOOSA, Ala — Anthony Roberson scored 26 points and David Lee had 24, giving No. 22 Florida an overpowering inside-outside combination in a victory over Alabama. The Gators (13-4, 4-2 Southeastern Conference) held Alabama to four points in the final 6:31 and their two stars answered a series of rallies by the Crimson Tide. Alabama (11-6, 3-3) overtook Florida briefly on Kennedy Winston's 3-pointer off a nice pump fake with 6:48 left for a 72-71 lead. Then, Roberson hit a basket and a free throw and Lee hit two free throws off an offensive rebound and added a bank shot. The pair combined for 15 straight points for the Gators, who had no problem scoring against a team giving up a league-low 59 points in SEC play. Alabama had won 11 in a row at home. Winston hit five second-half 3-pointers, including three in a row to bring Alabama AP Top 25 1. Duke (18-1) did not play. 2. Stanford (18-0) did not play. 3. Saint Joseph's (18-0) did not play.
