And it's not even that hot. That shows lack of fitness and we saw this in 2022 after his long layoff.

Yeah he looks physically weak right now. Not surprising considered he hardly played or trained much since Australia

 

[BeatlesFan]

Djokovic is playing on 30% here.

I think he's winning the event. Some in his fan base thought he'd play a couple matches and move on, but that makes no sense. He wants to remain #1 and will want to beat Sinner on Sunday to show he's still the boss. He can skip everything till Rome.

 

[BeatlesFan]

He was in Marbella training extensively as usual, the videos are on social media.

He does. At least he's getting much needed match play.

 

[Bubcay]

Less vegan kebabs and more exercise Nole. You are completely out of shape mate..

 

[Hitman]

After watching Sinner v Rune, this was a hard watch

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

He was in Marbella training extensively as usual, the videos are on social media.

Ah right. Thanks for the information. He just doesn’t look in good shape physically right now.

It's a mixture of that but question is if he did the proper preparations like drinking and eating enough. its like he is about to die, and you can see the struggle.

another s n v try but losing the point this time

 

[jm1980]

Novak looking like he's 47 years old

 

[Deleted member 758560]

I think he's winning the event.

unlikely, beatles

 

[clayqueen]

Djokovic needs his concoction.

 

[Deleted member 806402]

just tuned in. why is djokovic walking like a hippo?

 

[Hitman]

Novak needs some hard drugs

 

[Bubcay]

What a crap fest this match turned out to be... Why the heck am I watching this at 2AM...

 

[rUDin 21]

This is 2018 Miami Djokovic..

 

[marc45]

war of attrition, which Djokovic looks like he's losing, but still likely to favor him on the scoreboard at the end

 

[NoleFam]

It's a mixture of that but question is if he did the proper preparations like drinking and eating enough. Like its like he is about to die, and you can see the struggle.

Yea he is really struggling physically.

you're hardcore!

[Deleted member 758560]

hat off

 

[nolefam_2024]

What is really happening? Can't watch the match but can't be that bad surely.

Is it ttw exaggeration or is Djokovic dead

Dead as a dodo.

 

[Deleted member 806402]

Rather watch paint dry. Cya.

 

[BeatlesFan]

unlikely, beatles

Well, I didn't anticipate this physical collapse in the last 15 minutes. If he was going to tank, don't win the first set. Djoker still wins this.

Can’t watch either but Djokovic lost his serve three times in a row…so infer what you will.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Dead as a dodo.

How is he standing then?

 

[nolefam_2024]

It's ok. It will happen in mc.

 

[Bubcay]

It seems it was the heat. He is in the shade now. Looking a bit livelier..

 

[Bubcay]

How is he standing then?

Barely. Stumbles after every gruelling exchange, which is almost every point.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Barely. Stumbles after every gruelling exchange, which is almost every point.

He did that in Cincy against Carlos but who won the match?.

 

[FernandoBiH]

I really think that we won't see Djoker winning another slam or olympics. He just can't fight in 3 or 5 sets with big guys liks Carlos and Jannik.

 

[Deleted member 758560]

cmon gioco one last break and we going home to prepare for a hard encounter with casper

 

[clayqueen]

.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

MPs djoko. Djoko raised his level a bit here

 

[BeatlesFan]

Djoker moves on! Slay on Sunday! Greek better roll over tomorrow.

 

[nolefam_2024]

I really think that we won't see Djoker winning another slam or olympics. He just can't fight in 3 or 5 sets with big guys liks Carlos and Jannik.

Are you sure?

I have seen ttw members make this mistake for past five years. Djokovic is world number 1 and kicked both of their ass not too long ago.

Don't be very hasty.

Don't fall for it. Andy Murray did during his peak and kept getting L in the finals.

 

[Hitman]

Djokovic wins, but did he really?

 

[onyxrose81]

Cool. That’s over.

 

[MeatTornado]

Supposedly dead man wins in straights

 

[Bubcay]

Let's goooooo.. The torture is over.. 77th masters 1000 semi final for the legend..

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko wins! To be gets the H2H with ADM and makes SF. This is a great run for him and he did better than many of us thought. Not sure he gets any further but positive week for him.

 

[Move]

But losing serve 3 times in 1 set is not part of the plan imo

Pretty sure.

But maybe I make mistake.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Yeah

Not every match has to be dominant. He won. That's it.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

He does. At least he's getting much needed match play.

Agreed. It’s a great week as he had lot of physical matches under his belt. Getting to SF is already better than we expected.

 

[NoleFam]

I don't know why both of them played so bad. Weird match. Djokovic will be happy to get through regardless, considering he was nowhere near his best.

 

[Hitman]

Back to back revenge

 

[BeatlesFan]

Djokovic wins, but did he really?

Hitman, you'll be happy on Sunday when 2011 Djoker shows up against Flamingo Legs.

 

[jm1980]

Warmer handshake than I was expecting

 

[nolefam_2024]

Djoko wins! To be gets the H2H with AFM and makes SF. This is a great run for him and he did better than many of us thought. Not sure he gets any further but positive week for him.

Why? Is Ruud so good now?

He can beat Nole but has never done before. let's keep watching.
