Being pro Novak is not wrong but insulting other player without any reason is wrong, they shouldn't hackle med

Can't say I'd mind a 3rd set if they can keep up this quality

Novak's age is showing with his loss in consistency, but both guys hitting some pretty high highs in this encounter.

Credit to Djokovic. He played attacking tennis on the important points in this game.

It was a 12 min game. As always in Tennis, whichever player wins these long games, wins the match.

Nah Med is taking this. Djokovic broke early and still had worlds of trouble getting this done.

Well, Fed playing Novak for 8 years prior definitely helped.I have a very spicy take here
34 yr old Fed dealt better with peak '15 Djokovic on HC (Dubai, Cincy, YEC RR)
than 34 yr old Djokovic can deal with 25 yr old Medvedev on HC?

Medvedev to win in a 3rd set tiebreak?

All those people who are talking about decline of Novak are being proven wrong here.
Med is playing his BEST but can barely hang with Novak.
In a best of 5, it's even HARDER to beat Novak. I wouldn't be surprised if Novak wins another 3 slams this year. Other than F.O - he should be the favorite everywhere with AO/Wimbledon - a 100% certainty almost.

True. It was the only way he had a chance to try get back into match. Had he not went aggressive Meddy would have won by now.

Please Med win this one, anyhow. This feels like a crucial final for matches with Djokovic in future.

Its very low margin for error for Nole and too high for Medvedev.

S&V against Medvedev's first serve return is a good plan, but most of the players can't execute it properly, because they can't get in fast enough, and even if they did, they'd turf the volley.
I also think Medvedev would alter his return position without losing any effectiveness. His deep positioning is just psychological.

Peak stretches decline the least compared to average level and consistency. Djokovic used to play at this level every week now it's like 5 matches a year.
