World No.2 Novak Djokovic denied the Little Beast David Ferrer an opportunity to defend his title as the Serbinator came back from a break down in both the sets to claim the Paris Masters crown in the French capital on Sunday. With his 17th consecutive victory on the ATP Tour since losing to the King of Clay Rafael Nadal at the US Open, Nole joined a select band of players who have at least won 40 trophies during the course of their careers.
The winner of the China Open found himself under the gun in the first and the second sets as the Spanish No.2 David Ferrer continued his good run of form against Novak as well as soon as the match began he was seen bossing the rallies by overrunning and outstretching Djokovic in the grueling baseline exchanges. A similar strategy had worked wonderfully well for the Valencia resident on Saturday as he had dismantled the reigning French and US Open champion Rafael Nadal in straight sets to earn an upset win over his countryman in an hour and 43 minutes.
