Novak Djokovic was less than impressed with receiving a time violation in his win over David Goffin, calling it completely ridiculous.The world No 2 eased past Goffin 6-1 6-2 to secure his third straight win at the ATP World Tour Finals.But there was a moment of frustration for Djokovic during the fifth game of the match when he was given a time violation for taking too long between points. It came at the end of a lengthy point that Goffin, who was a substitute after Gael Monfils withdrew with injury, won with a lob.Djokovic remonstrated with the umpire at the change of ends and expressed his frustration to Sky Sports Mark Petchey after the match. Djokovic talks to Mark Petchey about the time violation Its really not fair I get a call violation for going a few seconds over the time. I understand there is a rule but there is also an understanding of the game, he said.It was a long point, it was the fifth game of the match, it was the first time I went over the allowed time, and he gives me a warning. He doesnt recognise the situation and the circumstances we were in, because if he did he would tell me to hurry up a bit. I dont understand why he did it.There should be fairness to this rule. If you go over for the first time you have plenty of time to tell me. If you give me a warning after that I wont say a word, but not the first time I go over. I think its completely ridiculous.Sky Sports analyst Leif Shiras said afterwards he favours the introduction of a shot clock so players can see how long they take between points. Djokovic says he felt more comfortable on court than in past matches And former world No 4 Greg Rusedski added: You get a warning first, saying you have gone over by a few seconds, then next time told I will call you. Thats an unwritten rule. At the end of the day, lets have some common sense.Aside from the time violation, there was little for Djokovic to complain about during a routine win.I felt the most comfortable today from all the three matches I have played, he said. I felt I increased the level and quality of tennis. So thats a good sign. Its not easy for him, he came here and practiced for the last couple of days, he didnt play his best tennis but I wish him all the best and he is a great player.Djokovic will now look ahead to the semi-finals as he continues his quest to win the tournament for a fifth year in a row and finish the year as world No 1 ahead of Andy Murray.Theres no stress at all, he added.

Cheap Reds Jerseys .C. -- Calgarys Kevin Koe did it the hard way again.CINCINNATI -- Linebacker Vontaze Burfict is finished with his NFL suspension, looking to put his emphatic imprint on Cincinnatis struggling defense.Tight end Tyler Eifert is close to full strength after recovering from ankle surgery, eager to become the top passing option near the goal line again.The Bengals are finally back together, looking to dig out of their worst start in five years when they host the Dolphins on Thursday night.The Bengals (1-2) have been out of sync on both offense and defense. They failed to make any game-turning plays in the fourth quarter of back-to-back losses against the Steelers and the Broncos. With Burfict back and Eifert close to form, theyve got two of their top playmakers available again.I just do my job, take control of my defense, just be a leader out there, Burfict said. I do what I can.The Dolphins (1-2) are simply trying to hold it together. They got their first victory on Sunday in overtime when Cleveland missed a field goal at the end of regulation.There wasnt much time to celebrate because of the quick turnaround and a mess on offense.Tight end Jordan Cameron suffered his fourth concussion and has been ruled out for Thursday night. Left tackle Branden Albert and center Anthony Steen have sprained ankles.Right tackle JaWuan James was pulled from the game against Cleveland after allowing a late sack. Pro Bowl center Mike Pouncey has missed the first three games while recovering from a hip injury.Well see where it goes, coach Adam Gase said. Weve got a couple of moving pieces, obviously, with our injury situation.Its a game that neither team can afford to lose.Being 1-2, in my opinion, we need to definitely finish the quarter (of the season) at 2-2 and go from there, or else we put ourselves in a very tough bind for the rest of the season, Dolphins defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said.Some things to watch on Thursday night:HOW MUCH FOR BURFICT?Its likely that Burfict will play most of the game on Thursday even though he missed the preseason and the first three games. Last season, Burfict was recovering from knee surgery and missed the first six games. In his return in Pittsburgh, he made solo tackles on the first two plays and was on the field for nearly half of the defenses plays.Well just seee how its going, defensive coordinator Paul Guenther said.dddddddddddd Thats kind of what happened in Pittsburgh last year. I said, `Every series, just tell me how youre feeling and well go from there.RUN ITAfter getting next-to-nothing out of its running game in the first two games, Cincinnati put an emphasis on it Sunday and got immediate results. Jeremy Hill carried four times for 65 yards in an opening touchdown drive. After that, the Bengals managed only 78 yards on 25 carries, an average of 3.1. It was better, but still not up to standards. The Dolphins run defense is second-to-last in the league.SPUTTERING DOLPHINSQuarterback Ryan Tannehill is the Dolphins leading rusher with 54 yards on the season, and they used four running backs in Sundays win over Cleveland with limited success. Gase said he sees progress in the ground game. The rotation at running back came about with starter Arian Foster sidelined by a groin injury.Youd always love to be able to say, `Lets get a guy in there and get 15, 20 touches and see how it goes, Gase said. I need somebody to step up and be consistent and do their job throughout the entire game, not just one good play here and then we screw up, and then another good play. Were too up-and-down.PLAUDITS FOR PUNTERStruggling to find someone to praise this week, Gase cited his punter -- perhaps a sign things the season arent going well. Second-year pro Matt Darr averaged 48.8 yards against Cleveland and put four of his six kicks inside the 20. Darr understands that punters can make a big impact on a game when the offense is struggling.Weve got all kinds of weapons on this team -- offense, defense -- and on special teams there should be some, too, Darr said.HOME BLUESThe Bengals are only 10-6 at Paul Brown Stadium in the past two seasons, including a first-round playoff loss to Pittsburgh. The Bengals play their next two games at Dallas and New England, underscoring how important it is for the defending AFC North champions to win on Thursday.---AP Sports Writer Steven Wine in Miami contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
