TORONTO -- Top-ranked Novak Djokovic beat fifth-seeded Tomas Berdych 7-6 (6), 6-4 on Friday to advance to the Rogers Cup semifinals.Djokovic improved to 25-2 against the fifth-seeded Czech player. The 29-year-old Serbian star won the event that rotates between Toronto and Montreal in 2007, 2011 and 2012.On Saturday, Djokovic will face 10th-seeded Gael Monfils of France. Monfils beat fourth-seeded Milos Raonic of Canada 6-4, 6-4.Raonic couldnt hide his disappointment after the loss.Disappointment is the right word, Raonic said. In tennis, unless youre the guy winning the tournaments most of the weeks, which theres very few guys that are doing that, youre losing quite a bit. So its very important to make the most of those, try to learn, try to be better from those situations. Thats my next objective.In the other quarterfinals, second-seeded Stan Wawrinka of Switzerland topped South Africas Kevin Anderson 6-1, 6-3, and third-seeded Kei Nishikori of Japan beat Bulgarias Grigor Dimitrov 6-3, 3-6, 6-2.Raonic had the crowds full support, with the chair umpire repeatedly having to ask the fans to quiet down. Even still, fans would call out Lets go Milos! or chant MI-LOS RAO-NIC clap, clap, clap-clap-clap after every game and most points. The boisterous crowd helped Monfils as well, though. He said before the match that he always loves a packed stadium, even if the fans arent supporting him.I play Davis Cup outside [of France], Monfils said. Its the same feeling, you know, either way. I think Im a guy always pumped up. Any energy, I take it. Even if its for me or not for me, I take it.Raonic lost the Wimbledon final to Andy Murray this year after becoming the first Canadian man to make the finals of a Grand Slam tournament.

The regular-season finish line is in sight and teams are jockeying for a spot in the postseason.Atlanta (14-14) isnt a lock for the playoffs, but the Dream are in decent shape. The same cant be said for the Phoenix Mercury (13-16), who sit precariously in the seventh playoff spot.The Mercury have underachieved after being picked by league general managers in a preseason poll as the team to beat this season.But Phoenix can take a big step toward living up to the hype when the Mercury travel Tuesday to Phillips Arena in Atlanta to take on the Dream in a 7 p.m. EDT game that could go a long way in determining each teams postseason fate.And despite their record, the Mercury remain a confident bunch.

Once Charles got going, it was pretty much lights out as Phoenix lost by 22.Griner was a nonfactor in that game, scoring two points in 23 minutes.The two teams wont have to wait long to meet for a third time this season.
