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.
With an all-round performance in the semifinals, the duo of Rohan Bopanna and Matthew Ebden moved to within one victory of winning their third title of the season as a pair after they overwhelmed Harri Heliovaara and Mate Pavic 6-7(3), 6-4, 10-6 at Paris on Saturday. The third seeds prevailed after 89 minutes of a tense match by winning 88 per cent (46/52) of their first-serve points and dominating at crucial times by preserving all three break opportunities to clinch a place in the summit encounter.

World number one Aryna Sabalenka defeated Elena Rybakina 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 in a rain-disrupted group match on Friday to book a semi-final clash with Iga Swiatek at the WTA Finals. The Belarusian, who finished second in her group behind unbeaten American Jessica Pegula, kept her bid for the year-end number one ranking on track with a victory that took two days to complete. She had won the first set but was trailing in the second when play was halted Thursday night after multiple rain delays.
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.

The Serbian star is playing in his first ATP Tour event since lifting a record 24th Grand Slam title in New York in September.
