It's hard to see this not being a blowout.

Depends upon Novak, somehow he is very generous even in top form

You're welcome man.
Intresting name, what does it mean?
Btw, its a quite popular last name in some eastern Europe countries.

What do you think?

Djokovic 6-3 6-4.
One break each set, he'll look to conserve energy and focus for potential semi with saschs

 

[Picmun]

If Ruud is ever to have a full awakening - Now would be a good time.

Time to wake up Casper, in 3

 

[Krish0608]

Most NID match in both groups put together. Hope Ruud can prove me wrong

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djokovic in 2 hopefully!

 

[BeatlesFan]

Djokovic in 2 hopefully!

6-3, 6-2 for Novak.

 

[BGod]

Novak 2, 2.

 

[Jonesy]

Djokovic to punish the clay court specialist for vulturing dirty points during the HC season.

 

[The Big Foe fan]

6-3, 6-2 for Novak.

63 64

 

[ND-13]

Why does this match deserve a thread ?

 

[Bubcay]

Here we go... 34 y.o. vs 22 y.o.. Can't believe the age difference... Hope Ruud gives his best against the ATG legend and they both give us a good match...

 

[Hitman]

Let's see how Earth's Mightiest is feeling today. Is he up for the task? No pressure of year end number one, just playing for the title.

 

[Larry Duff]

Golden set's gone

 

[junior74]

What a crazy point!

Hope Novak is ok...

 

[Bubcay]

Ruud playing really well thus far.. Very bizarre break point though. Slip and fall by Djokovic...

 

[Red Rick]

Golden set's gone

First serve game's gone.

 

[TheAssassin]

What was that slip...

 

[Larry Duff]

Tripovic

 

[Kralingen]

Lol, Djokovic just slips and falls over to lose BP

very high quality start no

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Hahaha! That’s coordination, to recover from a slip and still get that ball back!

 

[Kralingen]

The Ruud FH is causing Djokovic some real issues

 

[Bubcay]

Standard Djokovic start.. It takes him longer to get into the grove nowadays..

 

[Deleted member 748597]

Djokovic probably drank too much last night after Serbia beat Ronaldo and his pals.

 

[Arak]

Djokovic has been falling way too often recently.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Djokovic will need to only target Ruud's BH

 

[Pablo1989]

Nice start from the Norwegian!

 

[junior74]

Djoko Djokovic

 

[Deleted member 748597]

The YEC is too important in the GOAT debate.

 

[NAS]

Nice to know that.
Btw, You're an Indian, aren't you?

Yes

 

[Deleted member 748597]

The YEC count should decide the GOAT. Top 8 players of the season always fighting for that trophy.

 

[junior74]

Ruud has really improved his serving this season. Regularly over 200 and well placed 2nd serves.

 

[guga_fan]

Djokovic is very eager to move to the net. Don't know what's up with that.

 

[Deleted member 748597]

They should have changed the color of the court. Feels like London all over again.

 

[Red Rick]

Ruud has really improved his serving this season. Regularly over 200 and well placed 2nd serves.

I think this radar gun is just really high

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

I have a theory he is hungover from last night.

Edit: @Nole Slam beat me to it.

 

[Kralingen]

Energy must be conserved until a return trip to the pyramids later this year.

 

[Jokervich]

Djokovic is very eager to move to the net. Don't know what's up with that.

I think he wants to prolong his career as much as possible now. I notice he shortens most points this year.

Shouldn't celebrate his 6th title until it's in the bag.

 

[guga_fan]

Yeah, he has been doing this for a while. But he is exaggerating with coming forward so often. It's better to be aggressive from the baseline and then finish at the net if that's what he wants.

 

[junior74]

Well, that was a passive service game from Casper

I heard Serbia won something in football?

 

[NAS]

Well, that was a passive service game from Casper

Well you jinxed him by praising his serve
