Russia's Nikolay Davydenko returns to Swiss Roger Federer during their World Tour Tennis Finals semi-final in London on Saturday. Davydenko won 6-2, 4-6, 7-5</td></tr></tbody></table> Federer had never lost to Davydenko in 12 meetings, but the Wimbledon and French Open champion was unable to extend that run in the semi-finals at London's O2 Arena. Davydenko, who will face either Juan Martin Del Potro or Robin Soderling in Sunday's final, had only qualified for the last four late on Friday and was back on court just 14 hours later. But he showed no signs of fatigue as he made the final for the second successive year. Federer could not take advantage of two break points early on and then served two double faults and threw in two more unforced errors to hand Davydenko the first break. Another double fault and a netted forehand gave Davydenko a 4-1 lead. The Swiss got one break back but Davydenko made it three breaks in a row to win Set One. In Set Two, Federer broke at 5-4 to level the match but it the Russian took the deciding set 7-5. ATP World Tour Finals LIVE on Star Sports, 8pm
