World No. 1 Roger Federer qualified for Masters final in Indian Wells, where he is expecting the winner of the second semi-final with Juan Martin Del Potro (Argentinian) and Milos Racinic (Canada) rivals.
36-year-old Federer had a very tough game with the 15-year-old younger Croat Borna Chorich in the semifinals. The Swiss managed to prevail with 5:7, 6:4, 6:4 after nearly two and a half hours of play, but the young Croat was pretty close to victory. Chorich led with set and 4:2 in the second part, but failed to take advantage of his advantage. In the third set, Choir had doubled a break from a break and was on a 5:3 lead but eventually bowed his head to last year`s Federer who will try to win the sixth title tomorrow in his eighth final in the prestigious tournament.
In the first set, the game was very similar, and the two players were convincingly winning the games they served. The part went to the tiebreak, but in the 11th game where Federer had the initial shot, Chorich pressed the record holder of the 20 Grand Slam titles and managed to fight for the first break point in the game. Croatia made the second and led with 6:5, then with its service closed the first part.
Things continued to grow badly for defending his 2017 title, Federer, who was stabbed at the start of the second set. The result was 2:0, 3:1 and 4:2 for Choric, but in the eighth game via

At the very beginning of the third part, they exchanged a breakthrough, while Choiric won the first opponent, but the 21-year-old Croat failed to keep up. At 3:3, the 49th highest ranked player before the start of the tournament, Chorich retired again, but then again, he quickly broke into a rebound and it seemed to break him. In the last two games, Croat did not even get a point and had to put up with defeat, but for the first time in his career, he played a semi-final of the Masters category.
Federer can now boast the best start of a season in his career - 17 consecutive wins, with no defeat ever since the beginning of 2018. Federer`s previous good start was 2006`s highly successful 2006 season, when the Swiss began 16-0 on the road to 92 incredible victories this year.
