Novak Djokovic had few problems in disposing of Brazilian Thomaz Bellucci 6-4, 6-4 to reach the quarterfinals of the ATP Rome Masters on Thursday.

It was not always plain sailing for the world No. 2 as he was broken twice during the match but in the end he was never really under pressure as his opponent made twice as many unforced errors as him.
