Federer beats Djokovic to reach US Open final
None
Roger Federer beat Novak Djokovic 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 to move within one victory of a fifth consecutive US Open championship and 13th Grand Slam title overall on Saturday.
"One more match is all I need," he said. He wasn't going to go to bed knowing the name of his next opponent. Tropical Storm Hanna hit the New York area in the afternoon, dumping enough rain to force the suspension of the semifinal between No. 1 Rafael Nadal and No. 6 Andy Murray. That match will resume on Sunday afternoon with Murray ahead 6-2, 7-6 (5), 2-3, and the men's final was delayed a day until Monday for the first time since 1987. (AP)
