Djokovic Puts Boot to Sock to Reach Rogers Cup Quarters

MONTREAL — World number one Novak Djokovic stormed into the quarter-finals of the Rogers Cup with 6-2 6-1 demolition of Jack Sock on Thursday running his Masters 1000 winning streak to 28 matches.

A three-time champion on the Canadian hardcourts, Djokovic needed just 54 minutes against the overmatched American to book his spot in the last eight.

Djokovic got off to a sluggish start in the opening center court match of the day but after breaking to go up 3-2 the 28-year-old Serb was in complete control with Sock managing just a single break chance, which he was unable to convert.
