World congratulates Federer on milestone 100th title

And Andy Roddick apparently didn't think the milestone was worth its own tweet, but he did squeeze it in at the end of an airplane-bathroom anecdote.

By defeating Stefanos Tsitsipas in straight sets in Saturday's Dubai final, Roger Federer captured his 100th career ATP title, becoming only the second man to reach triple digits, Jimmy Connors being the only other.

Unsurprisingly, Federer received an outpouring on congratulations online after the victory, including from the 109-time winner himself ...

Plenty of other legends chimed in, too ...

Including Martina Navratilova, who holds the WTA record with a virtually untouchable 167.

The only other women in the triple digits are Chris Evert (157) and Steffi Graf (107).

Other active, though younger, players chimed in as well:

Sloane Stephens posted, "What a legend! Congrats Roger," and Borna Coric echoed her statement, Congrats @RogerFederer, you are a true legend of sport."

As did skier Lindsey Vonn, who reciprocated Federer's congratulations from February:

And, because it's Federer, his legion of fans had a lot to contribute too.

Among them were actor Hugh Jackman ...

"Huge congrats to my mate @RogerFederer!! Legendary status," the actor wrote.

And even the Golden State Warriors:

Naturally, Federer himself also posted a video thanking everyone:

Unlike with his Grand Slam record, Federer holds a solid lead on his contemporary competition in the total-title race. Rafael Nadal currently has 80 titles, Novak Djokovic has 73 and Serena Williams has 72.
