BELGRADE, May 9 (Xinhua) -- Serbia's Novak Djokovic beat compatriot Viktor Troicki 6-3, 6-2 on Friday to cruise through to the semifinals of the Serbia Open in Belgrade.
Top-seeded Djokovic defeated fifth seed Troicki in just over an hour and will face fourth-seeded Italian Andreas Seppi in the semifinals.
The obstacle for me was tough because I had to face my fellow countrymen. I am taking it step by step and I am not thinking about the finals. Seppi is a tough competitor, but I think that the advantage is on my side. said Djokovic.
The Serbia Open, which opened on Tuesday evening, would last until Sunday. Djokovic, the world number three, is the odds-on favorite to win the tournament, although the 21-year-old expects strong challenges.
