    The two most one-sided semifinals in terms of the scoreline in ‘Masters’ history that lasted 60 & 50 minutes respectively. In each of cases the best player in the world at the time, feeling invincibility, was trying whatever popped into his mind to outplay a clay-court specialist in every department. McEnroe notched 19th tournament win in a row, Federer 35th in total. Pete Sampras also needed just 50 minutes to humiliate Andrei Medvedev in 1993. London ’16 – Djokovic defeats Nishikori 6-1, 6-1 in the semifinal (66 minutes).
