Novak Djokovic is into the Shanghai Masters final and stands one victory from his 100th career title. With his 6-4, 7-6 (6) victory over U.S. Open runner-up Taylor Fritz, the 37-year-old Serb advanced to the final against world No. 1 Jannik Sinner on Sunday. Sinner earlier beat Tomas Machac, 6-4, 7-5.

Novak Djokovic fought through a knee problem to defeat Taylor Fritz 6-4, 7-6 (8/6) in an "incredible fight" on Saturday, setting up a blockbuster Shanghai Masters final with world number one Jannik Sinner.

Djokovic even had to improvise with his language skills, telling fans "Bu Yao Ji!" in Mandarin, meaning "Don't push!", when he signed autographs for them upon his arrival at his Shanghai hotel earlier last week.
