Berdych books place in Qatar ExxonMobil Open Final
Tomáš Berdych to face Roberto Bautista Agut in the Qatar ExxonMobil Open Final after 7-6 6-3 win over Italian Marco Cecchinato. The victory means that Berdych will face Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut who stunned World Number 1 Novak Djokovic 3-6, 7-6, 6-4 earlier in the day.
The Czech star eased through to his second Doha final in straight sets. Currently the world number 73, Berdych was once ranked number four. However, the return to form will be a huge boost for the 33-year old who missed the second half of the 2018 season with a back injury.
His previous Qatar Open final, in 2015, was also against a Spaniard, David Ferrer. It ended in a straight sets defeat.
