2021 US Open R64: [1] Novak Djokovic vs Tallon Griekspoor

Novak is irresistible. Feels like you are watching a real champion after all the midgets during the day. If Novak can maintain and exceed his level in week 2 - he might win without losing a set in the rest of the championship.

Novak looking good tonight I agree. Much better serving and cleaner strokes on both BH and FH side. Nice use of coming to the net too.

Has Djokovic won any points at the net?
Terrible touch tonight.

 

[ScentOfDefeat]

Was the guy in the black nike hat clapping.

Thanks. Had a feeling it was him.

Zverev should be careful and not to peak too early. A few players are impressive in first week to fade away in the 2nd.

I think he should peak early and stay at that level. And, Zverev's problem has been too many tough early rounds at the slams. He can't afford not to peak early.

 

[NoleFam]

Djokovic has not closed the net well at all tonight.

 

[ScentOfDefeat]

Lacking some punch off both wings, it seems.
And too many dropshots, this is not a clay court.

Zverev is gonna stop him again.

Novak likes to give his opponent a few BPs just to see what he can do with them

Novak loves a challenge!

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

BHDTL in action!

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

2 amazing shots from the GOAT

 

[uscwang]

Seems like a straightforward win for Novak

 

[Midaso240]

Struff would have been a tougher match, probably would taken it to 7-5 or 7-6 in a set or 2. Just business as usual for Djokovic...

 

[swordtennis]

PUSHER

 

[Mark-Touch]

Come on Djoker, stop holding up the Anisimova show!

 

[uscwang]

Playing World No. 1 in Arthur Ashe Stadium must have doubled the pressure for these young players. Will do them good for the future.

 

[swordtennis]

Boob throw back wtf

 

[Kralingen]

Why is the boob throw back smh

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Boobs are back bros! Boobs for everyone. New York crowd don’t deserve them from the GOAT though. They are lucky!

 

[Deleted member 629564]

Done in 99 minutes.

 

[Jokervich]

Not likely. Zverev is powering through thus far..

Lets hope someone pushes him to 5 sets beforehand so he's tired coming into the match. Sinner and Shapovalov can finally do something worthwhile in their careers.

 

[Kralingen]

@Kralingen - you need to stop hyping up all the mugs. Look what happened to HH. You were saying he was going to beat Matteo and challenge Novak. The Polish dude lost to Seppi. So pathetic...

I am a habitual mug-hyper. My fatal flaw. Lol.

Zverev is going to be a problem in the Semis though imo.

 

[NoleFam]

Boob throw back wtf

My god I was hoping he would retire it at least for this tournament.

 

[swordtennis]

Juat get em into a 5th set!
Let's dance.

Zedzilla will lose in straights to Novak. You heard it here first.
And Novak will also beat Titspas in the final in 3 or 4 sets. You heard that here first as well.

 

[TopspintheTerrible]

CHEER LOUDER YOU SCUMBAGS, LOUDER!

 

[swordtennis]

My god I was hoping he would retire it at least for this tournament.

Just do a wave and thumb up for the love of god.

 

[Midaso240]

Zverev is going to be a problem in the Semis though imo.

Assuming they both get there. Man, I miss grand slams when you couldn't just pencil names in the semis before the tournament even starts. The element of surprise...

 

[NoleFam]

Just do a wave and thumb up for the love of god.

How I wish he would. NY doesn't deserve boobs.

 

[swordtennis]

Huh.
The majors are more surprising now.
Murray and fedal are gone
Cmon.

 

[swordtennis]

How I wish he would. NY doesn't deserve boobs.

Should grab his balls and give the finger like connors.

 

[NoleFam]

Should grab his balls and give the finger like connors.

Lmao. That's what I would do. I'm not as forgiving.

 

[TennisFan3]

Djokovic's draw opening up. HH is out and Matteo looks awful. Nishikori also's playing like a mug. Smooth sailing till SF.

 

[mightyjeditribble]

He's got a fairly challenging draw so surely it's good that he's in form early
