Novak Djokovic eased into the final of the ATP tournament in Belgrade on Friday despite losing his form in the second set, beating Slovakia's Andrej Martin as he steps up his French Open preparations. The world number one saw off his 119th-ranked opponent 6-1, 4-6, 6-0 to set up a Saturday final against another Slovakian in Alex Molcan, who beat Argentina's Federico Delbonis 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 in Friday's other semi-final. It will be the Serbian's third final of the year after his Australian Open triumph and his final loss to Rafael Nadal at the Italian Open last week, but his first on home soil since 2011. "I'm super excited to play in front of a Serbian crowd. This is my home town. I'm always excited, but also nervous, coming out on the court and playing in front of my home crowd," Djokovic said.
