"I do really enjoy playing Roger," said world number four Andy Murray, and he got Roger Federer at last.
Federer of Switzerland defeated second-seeded Serb Novak Djokovic on Saturday to book an encounter with world number four Murray at the Shanghai Masters final.
It was Federer's eleventh victory over his 23-year-old opponent, and he elevated his ATP rankings to the second place thanks to Saturday's wonderful performance.
After clinching the match, the 16 Grand Slams owner was ready for the 91st final in his career.
Djokovic, who suffered from the first defeat in China, seemed a little depressed after losing the Shanghai semifinal and the world number two place to his six-year-older opponent.
"I think I've played very well in the first set," said Djokovic. "He played some great shots when he needed to."
Djikovic indeed played a wonderful game. The current world number three got himself four break points in the first set, but he failed to convert any of them.
"I mean, I made some unforced errors. I gave him a chance to attack me, and he did."
Federer was more efficient in breaking, turning one of his two break points to winner and end the first set 7-5.
The Swiss won the second set in a much easier way, gaining an early 2-0 lead by breaking Djokovic's first serve game. Djokovic broke back in the sixth game, but Federer decided to keep the match within two sets. The Swiss served out Djokovic 6-4 and claimed the match.
