Novak Djokovic sweeps Grigor Dimitrov, storms into Miami Open final

  • Novak Djokovic, a 37-year-old Serb and 24-time grand slam champion, defeated Grigor Dimitrov 6-2, 6-3 on Friday at Hard Rock Stadium to reach the Miami Open final in 69 minutes.
  • Djokovic, seeded fourth, is aiming for a record seventh Miami Open title and his 100th career title, a feat only previously achieved by Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer.
  • Despite losing his opening service game, Djokovic quickly settled in, making 87% of his first serves and committing only five unforced errors in the match, which was the oldest semi-final in Masters 1000 history with a combined player age of 70.
  • Djokovic acknowledged the windy conditions and the presence of Lionel Messi, stating, "It was a huge honour to have King Leo in the stands, it was the first time I have played in front of him," after the match, which was briefly disrupted by a heckling fan.
  • Djokovic will face either Jakub Mensik, a 19-year-old Czech teenager, in Sunday's final, seeking his first title since October in Shanghai and feeling as good as he has since the Olympics last year, while Dimitrov, who has now lost ten straight matches against Djokovic, canceled his post-match news conference after appearing dizzy and receiving medical attention.
