Djokovic wins Athens title, puts Auger-Aliassime in ATP Finals - ESPN

ATHENS — Novak Djokovic won his 101st career title by rallying for a 4-6, 6-3, 7-5 win over Lorenzo Musetti in the final of the Hellenic Championship on Saturday.

The loss ended Musetti's hopes of qualifying for season-ending ATP Finals in Turin, Italy, with Felix Auger-Aliassime earning the last spot instead.

Djokovic, 38, set a men's record with his 72nd title on hard courts, one more than Roger Federer.

«An incredible battle,» Djokovic said. «Three hours of a grueling match, physically.… I'm just very proud of myself to get through this one.»

The last set featured five breaks before Djokovic clinched the victory with a service winner. Musetti has now lost his past six tour-level finals.
