[kskate2]

Domi keeps going right at Djoke instead behind him. Broken

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Lob was long...................Novak breaks back

 

[mrzz]

Djokovic breaks playing superb tennis. One bad choice from Thiem when Djokovic was at the net cost the game

 

[tented]

Domi keeps going right at Djoke instead behind him. Broken

I keep waiting for the passing shot, but no ...

 

[don_fabio]

How Novak came out this is insane play

 

[Moxie]

Bad news for Dominic...Djokovic pulled himself back together during the delay.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Novak played ultra aggressive in that game and it paid off eventually.

No transition from defense to offense, complete offense in that game.

 

[Bonaca]

Please tell me what can Thiem do when Novak is playing like he is right now?? What? It’s all about him.

This is a very smart tactic when the opponent might be feeling the moment. He used it with success against Federer two times at USO
