DJOKOVIC - BETTER THAN LAST YEAR
Defending Rome champion Novak Djokovic ran out a comfortable 6-3, 6-4 winner over Juan Martin Del Potro and warned his semi-final opponent, Roger Federer, that he is both stronger and more patient than when he won here last year.
I feel quite confident playing here, said the world No3 after coming off court. Each match I play, I feel more comfortable moving the court and just playing my style of the game. Today I tried to change the pace a lot because I know that Del Potro likes more or less same pace, and he moves really well for his height. I knew that I had to move him left and right, try to be patient and go for the longer rallies and a little more spin on the balls.
Physically I think I'm stronger, and I'm combining this patience with aggressivity in certain moments, said Djokovic of his play compared with last year, when he defeated Nicolas Almagro, Radek Stepanek and Stanislas Wawrinka en route to victory. It's really important on clay to be confident in yourself, that you can play a lot of long rallies and be patient, but yet again, have big weapons to finish off the points, so that's what I did. The serve is going up and down a little bit, I think I need to work a little bit more on that, but the momentum is going to be okay.
Djokovic now faces the man he is trying to overtake for the world No2 spot, Roger Federer, in a hotly anticipated semi-final on Saturday afternoon. I look forward to it, it's going to be great for the people and great for the tournament to see that kind of semi-final, said the Serb. It's a challenge for both of us. I think we played two times on clay only, and he won both in Monte Carlo. I think I have a good chance I have been playing really well lately, so let's see. It's quite fast here, I think both of us like it. He likes a little faster clay as well, so it's going to be interesting.
Roger has been playing really well on this surface, Djokovic continued. He's been playing two, three French Open finals and winning Hamburg and getting to the final stages of each clay court event in last four, five years. He's certainly, behind Nadal, the best player that plays on this surface. I think I've been improving, so as I said, I have good chances. I get great support here and I'm really thankful for the crowd. It's a bit difficult to defend a title but I think I've been doing quite a good job until now.
