Novak Djokovic survives major scare to move into the French Open final

Top seed Novak Djokovic overcame a five-set thriller in Paris to reach another French Open final after a 6-3 6-2 5-7 4-6 6-1 victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Djokovic, 33, failed to take one match point chance earlier in the Semi-Final, before sealing victory with a forehand winner in the final game.

This means that the tournament's top two seeds will come face to face in the final round after Rafael Nadal overcame Argentine Diego Schwartzman in straight sets.

"I'm not feeling exhausted physically so much after the match," said Djokovic, who will meet Nadal for the 56th time in his career.

"It was a great battle. But I feel fine. I think a day and a half will be plenty of time for me to recover.

The Serb will be looking to deny Nadal reaching 20 grand slam tournament victories, which would see him tie with Roger Federer for all time major wins.

The world number one though insists he is up for the challenge as the showdown nears.

I'm really looking forward to a great battle with Rafa."

You can catch the French Open final on Sunday 11th October at 2pm UK time.
