Djokovic chokes

[Luiz Felipe]

I dont remember djokovic having epic chokes losing matches etc. Which shows he is very tough mentally and the king of clutchness

Probably.there are a few when he was young but that is normal.

I remember federer x djokovic rg 2011 he had 5-4 serving for the 4th set and lost 0-40 i think the game. Perhaps he could have won the match but of course not a certain thing. Can this be considered a choke? Do you remember a choke that he had?

I don’t remember that.

Djokovic doesn't really "choke" big matches, but he's gone through several listless periods in his career where he looks like he can't be bothered and crashes out early in tournaments. He's also lost matches he shouldn't have lost, but he wasn't even competitive so no one thinks he "choked". Wimby 2013 against Murray comes to mind. He also has had patches in his career where his serve was a direct liability, not even a neutral part of his game.

He's clearly a really mentally strong player, but there's some recency bias here that affects his perception in a positive way. I do remember that RG 2011 match. Djokovic served for the 4th set, Fed broke and won the match in the TB (back when he could play a great tiebreak...).

3rd set of the 2013 US Open final was pretty bad...

Not at the big matches. He is not a choker. He is a mental giant. That's the one thing I have to give him.

When he was younger, yeah. I guess I can point out at the USO final 2007 against Federer. He was up a break in both first and the second set but the pressure was too much. His first major final plus Fed was so much more experienced.

There were a few others but overall it's irrelevant. Some guys already posted some videos but I'm always trying to see the big picture.

You have to outplay him or Novak needs to have a bad day at the office.

 

[OhYes]

How about Wimby final 2019 5th set at 4-2 ?

2013 FO semifinal is choke of Greg Norman proportions.

 

[Antonio Puente]

As late as what, summer 2014, the guy had a losing record in slam finals?

He's done some choking, no doubt.
