Novak Djokovic rallied to defeat Andrey Rublev 5-7, 7-6 (7/3), 7-5 in a gripping Paris Masters semi-final on Saturday, earning a shot at a record-extending seventh title in the final against Grigor Dimitrov. The world number one relied on his unflinching powers of recovery to work his way back from a set down before sealing victory when fifth seed Rublev doubled-faulted on match point. "Rublev was suffocating me like a snake suffocates a frog for most of the match," said Djokovic.
PARIS : World number one Novak Djokovic took a step closer to a record-extending seventh Paris Masters crown on Saturday when he beat Russian fifth seed Andrey Rublev 5-7 7-6(3) 7-5 to set up a title clash with seasoned Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
Grigor Dimitrov kept up his late-season charge by squeezing past Stefanos Tsitsipas in three sets on Saturday and into the final of the Paris Masters. The 17th-ranked Bulgarian edged a high-quality encounter 6-3, 6-7 (1/7), 7-6 (7/3) to advance to his second Masters 1000 final -- after winning the title in Cincinnati six years ago. It was just Dimitrov's second win in eight meetings with Tsitsipas, who had yet to lose a set in making the last four at Bercy for the second year running.
Novak Djokovic edged out Holger Rune on Friday to avenge his defeat in last year's Paris Masters final and reach the last four, while Stefanos Tsitsipas set up a meeting with Grigor Dimitrov. World number one Djokovic missed a match point in the second set but eventually claimed a 7-5, 6-7 (3/7), 6-4 win over Denmark's Rune in the quarter-finals after more than two-and-three-quarter hours on court at Bercy Arena. The Serbian star is playing in his first ATP Tour event since lifting a record 24th Grand Slam title in New York in September.
Stefanos Tsitsipas powered his way into the semi-finals of the Paris Masters with a dominant 6-3, 6-4 victory over Karen Khachanov on Friday. It was the 300th win of his career and gives the Greek, ranked sixth in the world, a semi-final match-up with Grigor Dimitrov who overcame Hubert Hurkacz 6-1, 4-6, 6-4. Tsitsipas, who also reached the semis a year ago when he lost to Novak Djokovic, reached the last four without dropping a set and produced an impressive variety of plays to counter Khachanov's baseline power.
