Federer congratulates Bernet, winner of the Junior Australian Open

17-year-old Swiss player Henry Bernet won last week's Junior Australian Open after a solid tournament in which he dropped just one set.

Heralded as the new Roger Federer with his one-handed backhand, Bernet revealed that he had received a congratulatory message from the Swiss legend:

"I received a lot of congratulations. Among them was an e-mail from the Federer family, from Roger and his parents Lynette and Robert, which made me very happy.

They sent me their congratulations and wished me success in my future projects."
