ATP World Tour Final: Super Djokovic defeats Nadal to win Title

Novak Djokovic retained his ATP World Tour Finals title with a convincing win over world number one Rafael Nadal.

Djokovic, 26, extended his unbeaten run to 22 matches as he claimed the season-ending title for the third time.

Nadal outshines Federer

The mid-afternoon clash was not one of the best in their 32-match series as Federer faded badly in the second set to hand Nadal his first victory over him on an indoor court. Nadal was thrashed 6-3 6-0 by Federer at the o2 Arena two years ago but after a tight first proved too strong for the 32-year-old Swiss who looked weary after his three-set victory over Juan Martin Del Potro on Saturday. The year could now have a mouth-watering grand finale with Nadal up against defending champion and world number two Novak Djokovic on Monday although Swiss Stansilas Wawrinka will be hoping to ruin the script in the second semi-final later.

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.
