If Djoker wouldve had the same rest for the AO finals as Nadal....

That still doesn't answer why Andy took him to five. Was he tired prior to the semis? Or has Andy figured him out?

...then we would have been deprived of the sensational 6 hour thriller that we actually got.

Murray has the game to beat Djokovic. Just like Federer does as well. They both have the variety needed to beat Nole 2.0

I seriously doubt he was tired. He could have kept on running for 10 more hours if he needed to. However, he was very tense and played a pretty poor final (I guess he was feeling the pressure of defending his title, something he'd never done before), so yes, I think it's way too premature to say that Nadal has him figured out. Djokovic should clearly have won in straights had a not played such a dismal first set. And he choked big time in the fourth, giving Nadal his chance in the fifth (the Spaniard should have won, had he not choked away his lead, too).

Bottom line--agree with you that there is more of a gap than the score would suggest between Djokovic and Nadal, not that Djokovic was tired.

Well, last year AM was summarily despatched in 3. I am more suspecting that was not Nole 2.0 we saw. Anyway, the upcoming season will tell who improved and who fell back.

I agree, these gifs are unrelated to tennis and should not be posted. Mods?

I think it would have been done in three or four sets if he would have been more fresh. I think he started slow due to his long match with Murray.

The first set in the final showed he was completely out of it. Look at his UE count in that first set and how lethargic he looked.

Are you kidding? Thriller is Djokovic's favourite song! He even danced to it at a party.

They make about as much sense as adjusting water bottles or toweling off after every point.
