    Points won by each set: | 36-25, 30-21 |
    Points won directly behind the serve:
    28 % Djokovic – 16 of 56
    35 % Raonic – 20 of 56

    Djokovic’s 600th victory at the main-level (3rd title at Paris-Bercy following 2009 & 2013). He had now won 27 consecutive matches indoors then. The final lasted 1 hour 22 minutes (Djokovic took medical time-out leading 5:2* in the 1st set), 14 minutes longer than Raonic’s 2-6, 2-6 loss to Nadal in his first Masters 1000 final (Montreal 2013) – in both matches Raonic had once 40/0 on return… “Every time he put his racket on the ball, he was making me play a deep ball,” said the tenth-ranked Raonic. “If he gave me a short return and I would attack, he would be there. It elevated a certain pressure or demand of having to serve close to the lines.”

    Djokovic’s route to his 47th title:
    2 Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-3, 6-4
    3 Gael Monfils 6-3, 7-6(2)
    Q Andy Murray 7-5, 6-2
    S Kei Nishikori 6-2, 6-3
    W Milos Raonic 6-2, 6-3
