Not liking the showing from Medvedev today. Playing like Nadal, way too far behind the baseline. Medvedev often plays this way but not always and it's completely the wrong tactic against someone like Djokovic.

The game after Medvedev breaks Djokovic’s serve in the 2nd set was crucial for Medvedev. Ever since that game, he was never the same...

His serving isn't where it should be, and he's getting run around. Testy match without much rhythm.

Yup, was expecting him to break to start the set and he did and my hope and expectation before Medvedev himself served was that he'd hold and cruise in set 2. He resets well even after losing sets but blew it big time there.

What happened to Medvedev's quirky, unpredictable game? He has no idea what he wants to do.

Medvedev won't have any racquets left at this rate.

Just needs to break and hold here like he failed to do in the last set.

I will tell you this: While Medvedev has a more efficient game (hard court), Thiem mental prowess is more superior than the players younger than him (Medvedev, Tsitsipas and Zverev). Last year, Thiem fought even if he was down a set. This year man...

Medvedev has no hope playing this far behind the baseline. Awful tactics. Exact same way Nadal loses to Djokovic here badly.

The problem these days is once you get Novak or Nadal in a Majors final is that , like Tom Brady, they have been there so many times before that they can mentally adjust for the unique pressure of the situation.

Medvedev felt the pressure, having been there before doesn’t make it less.

Someone should just tell Ivanisevic to throw his mask in the bin.

That was probably his last chance. Needed to break and hold for 4-4. Game over, man.

Not the match we were expecting. Novak still reigns in Oz.

Well done, Djokovic. Shocking final and awful performance by Medvedev though.
