Tennis: Djokovic lands in semi final
Defending champion Novak Djokovic beat Juan Martin Del Potro to become the second player to reach the last four at the ATP World Tour Finals. The Serb joined world number one Rafael Nadal in the semi-finals with a 6-3 3-6 6-3 victory in London. It was a 19th consecutive win for Djokovic since losing to Nadal in the US Open final in September. Djokovic said "I have to say, considering the scheduling on back to back Bercy and World Tour Finals, I had luck that my group was selected to play Tuesday, Thursday," said Djokovic. "And I played night matches, so it gave me more time to rest, gave me more time to get ready. "I overcame the two big fights against Roger and against Juan Martin today. Both matches went the distance; both matches were decided in a few points. So I'm just very glad to be able to play my best when it's needed. "I did qualify for semi-finals, which is definitely a positive news, but I still want to try to win the last match of the group." Press on, great Legend.
