Rolex Shanghai Masters 2018: Novak Djokovic Eases Through Semi-final And Eliminates Alexander Zverev

Novak Djokovic's fate of claiming his fourth title in Shanghai will now be decided in the final after easing through the semi-final match against Alexander Zverev. 

The German, 21, did not stand a chance with the three-time champion who won four break points and claimed five straight games in second set to knock him out in straight sets by 6-2, 6-1. 

It was a devastating match for the world no. 5 in his second ATP FedEx career meeting with Djokovic, as he could not follow his previous record of victory over the Serb in the final of Italy Open 2017.

Djokovic will face in the final either top seed Roger Federer or Croatia's Borna Coric on Sunday.
