3 breaks in first 4 games. The Great Man leads 3-1.
5-2 to the Great Man
Djokovic breaks back for 4-5. The Great Man had two break points in Game 6 for a 5-1 lead. He could really come to rue those.
The Great Man saves two break points to hold for 6-5. He’s been ragged and tired looking last few games after the fast start and the unforced error count rising rapidly.
Djokovic takes the first set 7-1 in a tie break. The Great Man really let that slip, twice a break up, two more break points for a double break and getting broken back at 5-3, serving for the set.
Fed is done lad’s…time waits for no man.
He’ll retire this year for sure.

Djokovic breaks to take the second set 6-4.
All over now.
Djokovic breaks for 4-2 in the 3rd set.
Djokovic wins 7-6 6-4 6-3. Awesome performance after a sluggish first 5 or 6 games. Zverev or Thiem will have some job on their hands in the final.
Never any doubt in that result once Djokovic took the first set.
Novak in his interview ‘respect for an injured Roger coming out to play tonight’. What a warrior the Great Man is.
Not a lot players would do that, they would either pull out or start the match and then retire on their chair.
Zverev breaks opening game.
Zverev has the first set.
I’d give Thiem a fantastic chance against Djokovic, I’d slightly fancy him.
I give Zverev no chance.
Thiem struggles against big servers on hard courts.
Zverev takes first set 6-3. Thiem broken three times.
