- World No 1 will face Thiem after 6-3, 7-6 (4) victory
- Top four players in world will contest semi-finals
Novak Djokovic moves on, to his ninth semi-final in London. Alexander Zverev remains stuck in a personal dilemma, although he might be relieved to be out of ATP Finals as questions about abuse allegations from his former girlfriend Olya Sharypova continue to haunt him.
Their show-or-go shootout on day six was a tense and uneven affair, and Djokovic, a five-time champion, prevailed with his deep-rooted gift of riding out serial crises to win 6-3, 7-6 (4) in an hour and 36 minutes.
