Interesting segment:

In your mind, what is the one aspect of Novak's game that has improved the most since you joined his team?
I think his overall look at the matches. I think he plays more aggressive, he wins the points faster, therefore the matches are shorter, and he's still fresh in the semifinal and final. Whereas I felt before, when I was actually doing TV commentary for some of his matches, now and then he would lose a set or two for no reason. And I feel like that has changed. I feel he really is on the court with a clear purpose, with a clear game plan and he's able to execute it.

Of course, it depends on the draw – no opponent is easy, don't get me wrong – but if he has a chance to close a set 6-3, why don't you do it? And if you have a chance to go up a double break, and win the set 6-1 or 6-2, why don't you do it? If you want to practice some more, we can always go on the practice court afterwards. I think he really got that.
