2020 Cincinnati SF - Novak Djokovic [1] vs Roberto Bautista-Agut [12]

[TripleATeam]

Djokovic just wanted to get a perfect TB.

 

[it slipped out of my hand]

What a return RBA has nothing on djoko

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Lol. Djokovic leaning over and acting like he's dead. Comes and destroys RBA in the breaker.
What a joke.

 

[ChrisRF]

True. Because no one, least of all Novak, cares about Mickey Mouse tournaments. It's all about the slams.
These tournaments are glorified practise sessions for Fedalovic.

This is completely wrong. Maybe Djokovic doesn’t care about 250s and 500s, but surely he cares about Masters as his whole career clearly shows. And Nadal definitely cares about any clay tournament he enters. Federer is a bit different in the past decade or so, but before that he also wanted to win everything.

Djokovic has the most balanced success rate in Slams and Masters if we consider the 4/9 ratio.

 

[Tenacity]

Yeah. It's a little too much just for a masters semi, when the slam is starting Monday.

I hope he skips Rome after this and prepares for RG.

 

[The Guru]

Weirdest match ever

 

[Deleted member 748597]

Hahahahahahahahaha

 

[bjsnider]

RBA fell off a cliff in this TB.

 

[Hitman]

Is the streak that important to Novak?

 

[NoleFam]

Doesn't bode well for USO, wasting so much energy here, I don't know...

He does need to be tested though and pushed to his limit so he can prepare for long, tough matches.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Djokovic in tiebreaks is just nutty

 

[onyxrose81]

Novak looking red in the face like AO 2012.

 

[danglarND2010]

This is ridiculous

 

[MeatTornado]

This feels more like something that would happen to Federer than to Novak

 

[Lleytonstation]

Djokovic is struggling physically. Might explain why he couldn't serve it out. I missed this set after 3-2 but he doesn't look good.

And then goes on to win tiebreak 7-0...

 

[Pablo1989]

Surreal match. The New Normal.

 

[TennisFan3]

Weirdest match ever

True. What a TB.

 

[Hitman]

I hope he skips Rome after this and prepares for RG.

Yes. He needs to not play after USO, especially if he wins both events.

 

[it slipped out of my hand]

Game set match Djokovic!

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

7-0

 

[junior74]

Yeah. It's a little too much just for a masters semi, when the slam is starting Monday.

Must be a good warm-up to beat the guy to whom you've lost your last three encounters on HC.

 

[Deleted member 748597]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

 

[onyxrose81]

What a TB.

You’re annoying to play but good play to you RBA.

 

[MeatTornado]

"Take a bow, both of you guys"

lol, no Darren. That was a terrible match.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Djokovic in tiebreaks is just nutty

Japanese cheat code.

 

[Deleted member 774170]

Weirdest match ever

Djokovic Monflis USO 2016 is still a bit weirder

 

[mike danny]

Djokovic just can't lose. He may actually finish undefeated.

 

[it slipped out of my hand]

He looks exhausted... 3 hour match before USO is not good...

 

[Meles]

 

[TripleATeam]

Djokovic just wanted to get a perfect TB.

And there it is.

 

[jm1980]

My eyes were bleeding watching this match

It'll be too soon if we never get another Djokovic/Agut match

 

[Genie Of the Bank]

Novak right now

 

[Deleted member 748597]

Agut is a mug.

 

[Hitman]

7-0!!!!

LOL

 

[Born_to_slice]

Four losses in a row on HC incoming....

Imagine if Bautista and Wawrinka merged into one...they would have best of three and best of five locked down against Novak.

Ah, yee of little faith...

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Are Djokovic fans going to scream and cry how no one loves him while commentators gush over him?

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Japanese cheat code.

Mikhail's services ended at the top of the hour. So unlucky for RBA.

 

[DSH]

This match will be his downfall.
Book it!

 

[ND-13]

It was a grinding match. Well played Agut.

The good thing for Djoker is RaoMUG tomorrow whom he owns 10-0.

 

[Breakpointerer]

Djok knew what he was doing when he lost the first set.

 

[NoleFam]

And then goes on to win tiebreak 7-0...

I know you're happy about that revelation.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Loool the most strangest match I ever watched! Lmao

 

[Deleted member 774170]

Fedr would've won Wimbledon last year if tiebreaks weren’t a thing

#AbolishTiebreaks

 

[Meles]

Yeah. It's a little too much just for a masters semi, when the slam is starting Monday.

+240 points

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Congrats to Djokovic. But what a match. Simply amazing back and forth warring!

 

[Hitman]

This match will be his downfall.
Book it!

Go away....

 

[EzekielTennis]

Djokovic needs to rest. I don't even think he should play tomorrow. Forget about it and focus on the US Open.

 

[toby55555]

Looks quite sunny outside.

[jamesblakefan#1]

What an epic choke. Djoker taking advantage of this Mickey mouse field lol
