Djokovic Defeats Murray to Reach Shanghai Masters Final
SHANGHAI — Novak Djokovic reached his 13th consecutive ATP Tour final with a 6-1, 6-3 win over Andy Murray at the Shanghai Masters on Saturday, one of his most lopsided victories ever over his rival.
Djokovic will play Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in Sunday's final after the Frenchman upset Rafael Nadal 6-4, 0-6, 7-5 in the other semifinal.
The top-seeded Djokovic broke Murray five times and committed just seven unforced errors to 30 for the Scot.
"It's the best match of the tournament at the right time against a player who was in form and one of my biggest rivals," Djokovic said. "Obviously, there was a lot at stake."
