I guess people now will appreciate Stanimal 2.0 a lot more and how he approaches matches with Djokovic in the Slams. Baseline bludgeoning is how you get it done! Not loopy topspin FHs nor slices and beautiful tennis!
Even in winning, it takes 5 sets of sweat, grind and pain for Djokovic to overcome The Stanimal!
And when Stan goes into Godrinka 3.0 mode...it's game over for the Serb!
