Rome 2020 F: Djokovic (1) vs Schwartzman (8)

[junior74]

Roarovic toys with the Diamond Age.

Moral hug at the net.

Moral final against Ruud, though. Higher quality, especially from Djokovic yesterday.

 

[daphne]

WTF Drop shot to win the title F off

 

[phl92]

Djokovic is not a bad player on clay. Def not winning RG this year. Get all the good lines umpires Paris!

 

[RF-18]

HE DOES IT

BRAVO NOLE

 

[Hitman]

The Masters Record is his once again!

 

[Third Serve]

Congrats to the lad.

 

[Fedeonic]

Djokovic dropshotting his way out for the title. Congrats for both.

 

[TripleATeam]

GSM! 5th Rome, 36th Masters, and another 2020 tournament under his belt! Big win for our guy today Nolefam, let's see him parlay this into some good form at RG!

 

[The Guru]

Good bounce back from the USO

IDEMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko is champion!!!

 

[Big_Dangerous]

Djokovic is ready for Roland Garros, guys.

Well he won Cincy before the US Open and look at how that one turned out for him...

 

[joekapa]

And it is done.

 

[TheNachoMan]

Almost makes me feel better about the USO incident

almost

 

[MeatTornado]

Yeah. I see all the stuff about him winning a boatload of matches this year but he really hasn't been anywhere close to the unstoppable beast he was in 2011 and 2015. He's unbeatable more because no one has the ability to beat him rather than him having a very high level.

I guess what I'm frustrated with is that there are players with the ability, just not the mentality.

There was no reason Thiem couldn't have beaten him in Australia or Monfils in Dubai.

 

[Hitman]

Novak has declined so much on clay that he is currently holding the Madrid and Rome masters titles....

 

[Meles]

Bravo. Ready for Nole Open

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko is the best!!

 

[Bhagi Katbamna]

Diego made some errors on normal shots that he typically doesn't(probably from mental or physical fatigue). Congratulations Djoker.

 

[Third Serve]

Or Raonic in Cincy. Or even Schwartzman here.

He did enough to win. No need to do more.

He is the fav for Paris.

 

[MeatTornado]

not sure if serious

 

[TripleATeam]

Congrats Novak on the easier draw

Diego definitely had a tougher one, but that's simply because Nadal was there. Obviously Djokovic had a simple draw but I don't think the result would have changed if Diego met Ruud and Djokovic met Shapo.

Exactly it’s a myth. I’d love to be a declined clay player with them stats haha

 

[BrokenGears]

gj djoker, now pls win rg

 

[EpitomeOfAwesome]

Djokovic is putting too much pressure on himself going after number of tournament wins, just like Serena.
The moment he faces any opposition, he's getting frustrated. I think he'll lose in R3 or R4 at FO.

 

[TheAssassin]

He's not going to win Roland Garros playing like that. But Rome is the next best thing on clay so thrilled with the result. The Masters record is his and his alone once again, well deserved.

2008, 2011, 2014, 2015, 2020

Congrats to Djokovic blnt Schwartzman 75 63,,,Leader of ATP Master 1000 events by 1 over Nadal, No 36

Cheers

Dude played a 3+ hour match last night against Shapovalov that went past 1 AM local time. Of course, he comes into this one tired af.

 

[All-rounder]

To think if not for the blunder at the US open Djokovic would likely be heading into RG undefeated.

2011 vibes???

 

[Hitman]

10 masters titles on clay!!!!

He will be ready in FO.......don't worry about that.

 

[Fedeonic]

Djokovic on the verge of becoming the oldest Rome champion in open era history and also joining Nadal as the only two players to win a specific torunament on clay and on hard at least 5 times each.

Federer is just one Hamburg title short for completing the triple-5 on clay, hard and grass.

 

[Deleted member 748597]

Najbolji siiii Noleeeee

 

[TennisFan3]

Novak is BY FAR the favorite for Roland Garros IMO.

He is playing his best. And in the wet damp conditions - he is unbeatable.

I think he could beat BOTH Thiem and Nadal back to back if that is what it took to win his 2nd French Open.

#18 is coming soon. And he wouldn't need more slams to be called the GOAT.
A 2nd French Open would be something that Federer NEVER did and will do.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko has a great chance at the french open this year. The conditions will be his liking too. Time for the Djokovic open folks!

 

[Third Serve]

Federer is just one Hamburg title short for completing the triple-5 on clay, hard and grass.

I think demoting the tournament in 2009 really hurts him here. That clay suited him pretty well and he ended up winning 2009 Madrid (which replaced Hamburg).

I thought I just said that.

Djokovic has this now....

Corrected it for you. GOAT. Period.

 

[weakera]

Pretty good effort from Diego given the circumstances. Can easily see a QF or maybe even better for him at RG.

 

[JadeC]

Woooo-whooooo!

Didn't get to see the match, but I will see the highlights later today.

Congrats to our champ! 36 masters titles. The true master of masters!

 

[Hitman]

Holy crap, the Djokovic Open is next!

The hits just keep on coming!

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Congrats to Djoko on another Rome Masters 1000 title!

How will chatrier be damp or wet this year? Indoor waterfall under the roof? Or do you mean it will be cooler or more humid?

 

[RS]

Congrats to Djokovic. His masters record is crazy good.

 

[Krish872007]

Amazing Novak!
Once again finds a way to get the job done
Heading into the French Open effectively unbeaten in any completed match in 2020.
