Robin Soderling has ended ATP World Tour Finals Champion Novak Djokovic’s winning streak, thus earning him a slot in the semifnals of Barclay’s ATP World Tour Finals.
Soderling, making his debut at the season finale as a late replacement for the injured Andy Roddick, is the first singles player through to the semi-finals at the season climax. The Tibro native is the first Swede to reach the semi-finals since Jonas Bjorkman in Hannover in 1997. It is the second year in a row, and the fourth time in the past five years, that the No. 8 seed has reached the semi-finals or better.
“He has nothing to lose,” said Djokovic. “I think it’s his first Masters Cup. He won four straight sets and absolutely deserved to qualify for the semi-finals. I think he’s the best player so far in the tournament.”
