2020 Australian Open Final: Novak Djokovic vs. Dominic Thiem

[MargaretMcAleer]

Theim is doing a good job 'staying in the moment'

 

[Bonaca]

So unnecessary, wow.

 

[Bonaca]

Thiem makes the most out of it.

 

[Jelenafan]

All even.

 

[don_fabio]

Novak's defense has become really crappy.

 

[AnonymousFan]

Thiem breaks

 

[don_fabio]

Novak can't save a single BP. This could be finished in 4 with Thiem winning easily.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Too many UFE in your service game Novak,cost you the break of serve

 

[El Dude]

Wow. It is almost like Novak doesn't want to win this. Of course that can and will change quickly.

I know Rafa and Fed fans don't like this, but when Novak's head is on straight, he's the best player in the world. He's just better than everyone else. But these walkabouts are something.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Novak's head is still in that last set

Novak has to reset and play the tennis in the 1st set

Great drop shot Novak

 

[don_fabio]

Thiem just making gutsy moves when it matters.

 

[Jelenafan]

I have to tease you. Isn’t it because of Theim?

 

[Jelenafan]

Finally a Backhand DTL that worked.

And yet an injured 38 year old nearly raced to 5-1 against him 2 days ago. Sorry, not buying it. The best currently when he's playing well then, sure, I agree. He's consistent, but that's it. Put an aggressive player up against him on a good day and he's made to look very ordinary. See, injured 38 year old man racing to almost 5-1 above, for example.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Crap a double break to Theim

Novak has 'gone off with the fairies'

 

[don_fabio]

Double break. It is definitely Thiem that made Novak uncomfortable. He is shitting his pants again like against the Stan.

As expected.

 

[Bonaca]

Wow, only one player playing, the other is just making errors.
why ? Nothing special happened, thiem didn’t raise anything that high to explain the dip of Novak!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Off to work,get your game and head together Novak.....check scores later.

 

[Front242]

Medvedev and Thiem are going to be dishing out a world of hurt to the top guys this year. mrzz will be happy.
