Novak Djokovic Wins Fifth Paris Masters Title
(November 3, 2019) ATP Tour – Novak Djokovic won his fifth Rolex Paris Masters title on Sunday, defeating #NextGenATP Canadian Denis Shapovalov 6-3, 6-4 to clinch his 34th ATP Masters 1000 crown.
Djokovic won 80 per cent of his service points, saving the one break point he faced. The 32-year-old is now within 640 points of Rafael Nadal in the ATP Race To London as the battle for year-end World No. 1 heads to the Nitto ATP Finals.
“I think I had the best serving match of the tournament, and that’s why the match was pretty short,” Djokovic said. “I put him under pressure [on] the second serve, and from the back of the court, I was solid and not giving him too many opportunities.
“[It was] just one of the best matches I have played, definitely, this week. And I feel like the second part of the week was terrific. It was improving day-by-day for me in terms of level of tennis.”
