Djokovic extends run

Belgrade - Novak Djokovic defeated Feliciano Lopez 7-6 (4), 6-2 on Sunday to win the Serbia Open for his fifth title and 27th straight victory this season.

The Australian Open champion was not always at his best in a match often played in rain and had six double faults.

Lopez had two break points early in the first set at 2-2 - and then again at 4-4 - before Djokovic comfortably won the tiebreaker.

Djokovic broke twice in the second set and conceded no points in the final game.
