I will arrive in the final with confidence and excellent sensations, says Djokovic, qualified for the final in Geneva

One day after celebrating his 38th birthday, Novak Djokovic reached the final of the ATP 250 in Geneva, defeating Cameron Norrie in three sets (6-4, 6-7, 6-1).

The Serbian, who will play the 143rd final of his career tomorrow, will aim for his 100th title to join Roger Federer (103) and Jimmy Connors (109) in history. While waiting to see if the Serb, who has won so much on the circuit, will finally reach this symbolic figure, he spoke about his performance in a press conference:

"It's important for me to play and continue in this superb atmosphere in Geneva. I am calm, very motivated, and I have worked hard to reach this final. I enjoy great support here, and by finding my rhythm, I have been able to raise my level in each match.

Regarding the match (against Norrie), overall, I would say it was a 7 or 8 out of 10. But at times, it was a 9, almost a 10 out of 10, because I was very solid and my tennis was of high quality. My third set was really good, clearly the best of the tournament.

And that's good news for me because I will arrive in the final with confidence and excellent sensations.

Before, I played well in practice, but not in matches. This tournament in Geneva has allowed me to change everything.
