PARIS — World number one Novak Djokovic survived a second-set blip to reach the Paris Masters final with a 6-3 3-6 6-0 win over Stan Wawrinka, his 21st victory in a row, on Saturday.
Djokovic, looking to become the first man to win six Masters title in a season, briefly lost focus as French Open champion Wawrinka of Switzerland ended the Serb's 29-set winning streak to claim the second set.
But the fourth seed paid dearly for it, losing the last six games as Djokovic, who hopes to claim an unprecedented third Bercy crown in a row, set up a showdown with Andy Murray after the Briton beat Spain's David Ferrer 6-4 6-3.
