Novak Djokovic clinched the most comprehensive victory of his career last night when he humiliated Czech journeyman Jan Hernych 6-0, 6-0 to reach the Swiss Indoors quarter-finals.
The 52-minute "doule-bagel" was the first for the Serb at the elite ATP level, bettering his 6-1, 6-0 win over Argentina's David Nalbandian in the Queen's Club semi-finals in 2008, a rout which took four minutes less.
Djokovic also defeated Britain's Andy Murray by the same scoreline in Miami two years ago.
"I've never had one ("double bagel") before. It's really tough to analyse the match," said the World No 4. ""I know the crowd wanted him to win the last game, but I felt there's no room for sympathy."
