Djokovic survives tough test; Davydenko sends Murray packing


Novak Djokovic endured a tough match today by defeating Gilles Simon in a nail-biting three setter. Simon had some neck problems early in the second set and then lost his serve to give Djokovic a confident drive to win the second set. In the third set, Djokovic lost his serve at 5-4 with Simon fighting for every opportunity but Djokovic proved too strong to win the match 46 63 75.

He will now meet Nikolay Davydenko in the final, who chipped away at Andy Murray and eased to a 75 62 win. This will be both Djokovic's and Davydenko's first Masters Cup final, so let the best man win.

Stay tuned for news on the finale!
