The top seed and 2011 champion, playing in his 26th consecutive
quarter-final at the majors, claimed his 55th match win in New York.
Djokovic, this year's Australian Open and Wimbledon champion, also
enjoyed his fifth win in five meetings against Lopez and will take a
staggering 13-0 career record over defending champion Marin Cilic into
their Friday semi-final.
Cilic reached the semi-finals with a 6-4, 6-4, 3-6, 6-7 (3/7), 6-4 win over France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Djokovic had been pushed to four sets by Lopez's Spanish compatriot Roberto Bautista Agut in the previous round.
But the 33-year-old Lopez, playing in his first US Open quarter-final after 55 consecutive Grand Slam appearances, was shellshocked in the first set. http://post.jagran.com/novak-djokovic-to-face-cilic-for-us-open-final-spot-1441795824
