Djokovic, Wawrinka Advance to US Open Men's final

Novak Djokovic and Stan Wawrinka navigated through a variety of difficult conditions and equally tricky opponents. The top-seeded Djokovic prevailed despite suffocating humidity, physical issues and the wildly unpredictable nature and head games of Frenchman Gael Monfils to win, 6-3, 6-2, 3-6, 6-2, in 2 hours 33 minutes. 
In Sunday’s final, Djokovic will face No. 3 Wawrinka. Conditions were only slightly better in the Wawrinka-Kei Nishikori semifinal later in the day, still oppressively humid and featuring a rain delay in the third set. Then the roof was closed and Nishikori came out with a bit more punch after the seven-minute break. Wawrinka fought off a break point in the ninth game and then broke Nishikori’s serve to take the third set and won the first 10 points of the fourth on his way to a 4-6, 7-5, 6-4, 6-2 victory in 3 hours 8 minutes. 
Djokovic is 19-4 against Wawrinka, and the last time they met in a Grand Slam final was at the 2015 French Open, where Wawrkina won in four sets. Djokovic will be attempting to win his 13th Grand Slam singles title, Wawrinka his third.
