Monte Carlo: Djokovic against De Minaur now LIVE
Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner and Stefanos Tsitsipas reached the semi-finals of the Masters 1000 tennis tournament in Monte Carlo on Friday. Djokovic had to fight harder than he would have liked in his 7:5, 6:4 win over Australian Alex de Minaur, but is still without a set loss. Sinner needed three rounds in his 6:4,6:7(6),6:3 win over Holger Rune (NOR), while Tsitsipas had a comparatively comfortable working day in his 6:4,6:2 win over Russia's Karen Khachanov.
At 36, Djokovic is the oldest semi-finalist in the history of the clay court tournament. The Serb also overtook the previous record holder Rafael Nadal with his 77th Masters 1000 semi-final and will now meet the winner of the evening match between Ugo Humbert (FRA-14) and Casper Ruud (NOR-8). Sinner will face Tsitsipas in the final round.
Here are the match statistics:
Sinner and Tsitsipas already through
Meanwhile, two semi-finalists have already been decided: Jannik Sinner beat Holger Rune 6:4, 6:7(6) and 6:3, Stefanos Tsitipas had less trouble against Karen Katschanow 6:4, 6:2.
Djokovic certainly seems to be in top form. He defeated the Italian Lorenzo Musetti 7:5, 6:3 in the round of 16.
