    Djokovic broke Soderling in the first game and after double faulting on deuce at 4-3, fired three consecutive aces to hold serve and went to take the set.

    Soderling took a 2-0 lead in the second set before Djokovic broke back to level at 2-2 and then broke Soderling's serve again at 4-3. The Serbian then served out the match with an ace.

    The 22-year-old Djokovic fired six aces and committed fewer errors than six-seeded Soderling in a match that was closer than the scoreline suggested.

    Djokovic, who now was assured of moving above injured Andy Murray to reclaim the world number three spot, will meet the winner of top seed Rafael Nadal of Spain and Croatian Marin Cilic in Sunday's final.
