Federer outclasses Djokovic to reach ATP Finals semis

LONDON - Roger Federer produced a near-flawless performance as he avenged his Wimbledon defeat by Novak Djokovic and qualified for the last four of the ATP Finals with a 6-4, 6-3 victory on Thursday.

Roared on by a raucous packed house at London s O2 Arena, six-time champion Federer looked in the groove from the start, cranking up the pressure on Djokovic s serve and dropping just three points on his own serve in the first set. Djokovic needed to win the title to have a chance at knocking Nadal off the top spot, but now the Spaniard is guaranteed to finish the year as the top-ranked player for the fifth time, tying him with Federer, Djokovic and American Jimmy Connors.

Federer finishes second in Group Bjorn Borg, behind Thiem, who also beat Djokovic earlier this week. The Swiss will face the Group Andre Agassi winner on Saturday. Federer s service level dipped in the second set and 32-year-old Djokovic earned his first break point of the match in the fourth game, which the Swiss saved.

"He was the better player in all aspects and absolutely deserved to win," said Djokovic. "He served great, moved well, returned my serve very well.... He did everything right."
