Wow

 

[BobbyMorri]

this is a long long game.

bounce Bounce bounce

 

[Drummond]

Rubbish start. Very nervous start.

Djokosmash to get broken.

Ruud’s heavy topspin FH causing issues.

Amateur level stuff from Novak. UE after UE.

Tom Brady in Novak Djokovic player box... You trying to make me dislike you, Novak?

 

[danstar]

Donkey!!!!!

Haha I was guna say I don’t like Novak and now that Tom Brady is his friend, makes me dislike him even more now…

 

[danstar]

There we go, that worked calling him a donkey

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

This is unlike Novak to miss a sitter

 

[Drummond]

Okay this is going to be far from easy. This first set looks gone, he can’t win any rally. Ending in UE or a Ruud winner. Highly concerning start. USO 21 final vibes.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Dead set how many UE do you want to make Novak seriously

Not making an UE would be a start

 

[Gigantic]

Djokovic really shouldn't be down 4-1 from moonballs and 2nd serves, but here we are

 

[Drummond]

Ruud is pretty much just spinning everything up high, no pace, making Novak generate all the pace. Not a warm day, no sun, heavier conditions. Novak nervous. Ruud got a lot going for him.

 

[danstar]

Slowly working into match

DJOKOSMASH

 

[Drummond]

Cmon!!!!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Least Ruud sucks at smashing too

 

[danstar]

Djoker in 3 is still on

 

[danstar]

Well done Nole, hes well on top now

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

This high hitting by Ruud is no longer working for him, needs to try another strategy

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Wow Novak fell nearly rolled ankle

 

[Drummond]

Novak had BP, was hitting to BH shot after shot, then Ruud found a FH and that was that. Got to keep targeting BH.
