Sublime Djokovic Crushes Nadal to Set Up Federer Final

LONDON — Novak Djokovic turned on the style to outclass old adversary Rafael Nadal and reach the final of the ATP World Tour Finals with a 6-3 6-3 victory at the 02 Arena on Saturday.

Spaniard Nadal had looked more like his old dominant self with round-robin wins against Andy Murray, Stanislas Wawrinka and David Ferrer, but the world number five was no match for Djokovic who was at his clinical best.

The Serb will face world number three Roger Federer in Sunday's final after he won an all-Swiss second semi-final 7-5 6-3 against Stanislas Wawrinka.

Federer, who had an unblemished record in group play, hit back from 4-2 down in the opening set to brush aside his compatriot in little more than an hour.
