Djokovic Delivers Clutch Performance



As projected, six-time Grand Slam champion and world No. 2 Novak Djokovic is into the men's semifinals after eliminating eighth-seeded Canadian Milos Raonic in straight sets on Tuesday.

Twitter's Chris Skelton notes Djoker's impressive streak:



Although Raonic had his chances in the first two sets, Djokovic slammed the door shut every time, saving Raonic's only break point in the opening frame and cashing in on clutch points in the second-set tiebreak.

The third set wasn't nearly as close as Djokovic closed out Raonic comfortably to earn a round of applause from the crowd on Court Philippe Chatrier, per Roland Garros on Twitter:



While Djokovic will be lauded for his dominant performance, and rightfully so, the Serb has bigger goals this June. Even reaching Sunday's final won't be good enough for the Djoker. It's championship or bust for the No. 2 seed, who's still looking to complete the career Grand Slam he came within two sets of in 2012.

With eight-time champion Rafael Nadal still in the mix, Djokovic is no lock to win his first French Open title in 2014.
