( CNN ) -- Roger Federer fended off an audacious comeback by Jo-Wilfried Tsonga to win the ATP World Tour Finals for a record sixth time in London Sunday . A pumped up Federer wrapped up a 6-3 7-6 6-3 victory over Tsonga in his 100th career final to end 2011 on a conspicuous high note . Consecutive titles in Basel , Paris , where he also beat Tsonga in the final , and at the season-ending championships have seen the Swiss maestro reclaim the No.3 spot in the world from Britain 's Andy Murray . But he had to withstand a mid-match onslaught from his French opponent , who broke Federer as he served for the match at a set and 5-4 to the good . Tsonga also saved a match point in the second set tiebreaker before leveling at one set all . But as in the first set , Federer broke Tsonga again in the eighth game of the decider and made no mistake when he served for the championship for the second time . `` I could n't be more happy my season ends this way . I 'm exhausted , Jo sapped every last energy out of me today , '' Federer said . His triumph lifted the Swiss maestro out of a tie with Ivan Lendl and Pete Sampras for titles at the ATP 's end-of-season finale . It was his 70th career crown . It will also compensate for failing to add to his 16 grand slam crowns this season as Novak Djokovic , who failed to make it out of the round robin group stages in London , dominated with three . Rafael Nadal , who beat Federer in the final to win the French Open title , was also eliminated at that stage as he lost to Tsonga in a deciding match . Earlier , third seeds Max Mirnyi and Daniel Nestor beat the Polish pair Mariusz Fyrstenberg and Marcin Matkowski 7-5 6-3 to win the ATP World Tour Finals doubles title .
