Roger Federer moved into second place on the all-time ace list with his 10,132nd ace during the first set of his third-round match with Feliciano Lopez, but this is one record that the Swiss maestro might not want to bother chasing. That’s because Federer is still 2,000 aces behind Dr. Ivo Karlovic and the Croatian is still racking up aces this season at the age of 38.
