Novak Djokovic defeated Grigor Dimitrov in the semifinals at the Paris Masters in France 7-6 and 6-4 to reach 2nd final in a row.

Both players started the match patiently as we did not see any break points in the first set. Djokovic knew he has to play at really high level as ahead of the match he said: “Since the US Open he’s playing at a different level, a high level. He always had the game. It’s just sometimes a matter of things coming together, really, mentally and at the right time"
In the tie-break of first set it was Dimitrov who was leading already 5-3, but Djokovic won 4 points in a row to take the first set. Djokovic kept the good momentum going as he converted the 2nd break point of the match to earn an advantage in the second set.
After an hour and 39 minutes Djokovic advanced into 2nd final in a row at Paris Masters as he lost to Khachanov last year. In the final he will be facing the winner of the match between Nadal and Shapovalov.
