Brooksby earns the break back and this is going to hurt Novak. Crowd goes wild!

Djokovic rattled in this game.
He rattled himself. The serve is the only thing keeping him in this set. His ground game is whack tonight. If he goes down 2 sets, will he be able to rally against this kid and his unorthodox game for 3 sets (this isn't the final)?

Djokovic has to stop trying to bail with the drop shot in this match.

if djoko is dropshotting maybe he is feeling lethargic and trying to shorten pts.

The unorthodox game, that he's never seen it, that the kid can swing away, and that the crowd will pull for Brooksby...all adds up poorly for Novak, at least within the context that anything ever does.

Brooksby has been poor on some put-way shots. He puts it back in play and gets hurt.

It is like a perfect upset storm isn't it?

Well he better find a way to break the crowd and Brooksby’s spirit quickly if he wants to survive.

Hard earned break back lost, but some damage is done. But it's Brooksby that won't withstand this pressure and this physical test. Too young. When/If Djokovic wins this set, it could go by fast after that.

If anyone's sucking "wind" right now, it's this kid! He can be proud of himself hanging in there with Djokovic over such long points and games, but it's going to cost him in the end! He's already played a few marathon matches, but they weren't w/ the #1 player in the world! :face-with-hand-over-mouth: :clap: :good::dance2:
