Djokovic wins again on home soil

Novak Djokovic

Home favourite Novak Djokovic won the Serbia Open without dropping a set after beating Spaniard Feliciano Lopez 7-6 6-2 in Sunday's final in Belgrade.

It was the 23-year-old Serb's fifth title this year, and stretched his unbeaten record in 2011 to 27 matches. Djokovic, who won the Australian Open at the start of the year, had an easy path to the final including a first-round bye and a semi-final walkover.

However, he had to save a break point at 5-5 in the first set to prevail. Djokovic, playing in his home city, romped to a 5-1 lead in the tie-break before wrapping up the set in 73 minutes.

Having served his way out of trouble to lead 2-1 in the second set, the world number two broke serve for the first time in the fourth game and saved another break point in the sixth, before Lopez handed him a 5-2 lead with two unforced errors.

Juan Martin del Potro

Juan Martin del Potro cruised to victory at the Estoril Open, seeing off Fernando Verdasco in straight sets to secure his second ATP Tour title of the year and ninth of his career.

Del Potro - the 2009 US Open champion, who is still trying to return to his former level after a long-term injury - simply had too much class for his opponent on Sunday afternoon. The Argentine managed to be broken just once while finding five breaks of his own as he rode a high first-serve percentage to an emphatic 6-2 6-2 triumph over the No. 2 seed.

Nikolay Davydenko

Elsewhere, Nikolay Davydenko took victory at the BMW Open in Munich after a three-set win over Florian Mayer. The Russian entered the final as the lower seeded of the two men - seven to Mayer's five - but he nevertheless took the first set with some breathing space after securing the only break. But Mayer turned the tables in the second stanza, forcing the final into a decider, but Davydenko's class eventually told as he romped towards victory, eventually clinching a 6-3 3-6 6-1 success.
