Novak Djokovic's mission to equal Roger Federer's record of 6 ATP Finals trophies is still on track after he beat  world number seven Alex Zverev in straight sets, 6-3, 7-6.

Other impressive stats are that he is now 15 and 1 in tie-break sets this year, and here's another one - He has now reached 9 semi-finals in this tournament, putting him one behind Pete Sampras, three behind Ivan Lendl, and 7 behind Federer. He'll face Dominic Thiem

Third seed Daniil Medvedev warmed up for his semi-final against second seed, Rafael Nadal, by blowing away Diego Schwartzman 6-3, 6-3 which makes it three wins out of three for the tall, hard hitting Russian.

And he hasn't dropped a set either.

His meeting with Nadal will be a re-match of the 2019 US Open final, which Nadal won in a marathon 5-sets.
