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

[Lleytonstation]

This will be a long one. No sense in getting excited for breaks as they will happen a lot today.

 

[MeatTornado]

Djoko has been playing on and off this week, so not surprising to me.

I was referring to all the cat & mouse points, not the fact that Novak got broken.

 

[Lleytonstation]

Diego getting free points on the serve, surprisingly.

Best serve of his era.

 

[Hitman]

Really? Why?

Have you seen Diego's girl?

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Great dropper from Djoker

 

[TennisFan3]

Djokovic is below 170 lbs at his height. His dedication is AMAZING.

He is almost 30 lbs lighter than Fed and Nadal. Which is why he is FAST as ever and will have a longer career than both.

 

[MeatTornado]

Diego getting free points on the serve, surprisingly.

He hit like 4 first serves in a row. Crazy.

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Djokovic had to try exceptionally hard to hand the break over there. What a woeful three points.

weakeraovic in full flow

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Diego getting free points on the serve, surprisingly.

I remember him outserving RAFA in their AO match

 

[Fedeonic]

That's some intense rallies from Peque.

 

[TennisFan3]

Have you seen Diego's girl?

Yes. But what has that to do with the result for Tennis.

And she's good (considering Diego). But there are other players with far prettier WAGs.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Another great dropper from Nole and Diego holds

 

[Daniel Andrade]

Thanks Novak

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Mugovic wants to win at 20% again?? lazy dropshots to end rallies here

 

[junior74]

Lovely droppers into the net and Diego holds

 

[MeatTornado]

Get out of here, Rain Gods.

You're only supposed to help Rafa, not Novak.

 

[InsideOut900]

Huh, nice dropshots Novak

 

[mike danny]

Some amazing dropsh*ts.

 

[Third Serve]

Another great dropper from Nole and Diego holds

Had me in the first half, ngl

 

[Breakpointerer]

Best serve of his era.

Would win 30 Slams in any other era

 

[Hood_Man]

That dropshot was absolute codswallop.

 

[Meles]

That was the quarters...

Berry is not the emperor

 

[Nostradamus]

Mugovic wants to win at 20% again?? lazy dropshots to end rallies here

Novak is so dumb. he should know that with rain, ball is heavier and drop shot have to be hit little harder

 

[Third Serve]

Some amazing dropsh*ts.

Finally, we have a winner.

 

[fmadej]

I bet on Schwartz, cause the odds were nice.

 

[Fedeonic]

Good hold from Peque. 2-0.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Diego shows Novak how to hit a dropper

 

[onyxrose81]

Why is Novak so stubborn with these drop shots? They’re not working you dink.

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

dropshot trollery

 

[MeatTornado]

Would win 30 Slams in any other era

Agassi wouldn't win a single point on return

 

[The Guru]

Djokovic had to really mug to lose the first two games. Easy ball on top of the net on game point. Win first 4 rallies in play. Give Diego 4 missed returns. That's not even mentioning his favorite thing to do this year. Troll drop shots.

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Why is Novak so stubborn with these drop shots? They’re not working you dink.

Arrogance. Usually works in his favour.

 

[Third Serve]

Can't see the match rn. Already a break of serve! How are both guys doing?

 

[mike danny]

Why is Novak so stubborn with these drop shots? They’re not working you dink.

Doesn't feel confident in being able to outlast Diego. Comes with the age territory.

 

[junior74]

Would win 30 Slams in any other era

30+

 

[BrokenGears]

not feeling good about this match rn

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Diego on top. Djoko on ropes so far!

 

[Atennisone]

Yeah yeah.
Ferrer was 5-3 in first set lost 5-7, second set was 5-3, lost 5-7.

 

[Tenacity]

Can't see the match rn. Already a break of serve! How are both guys doing?

Djokovic giving away free points with some amazing drop shots. Diego playing great during long rallies.

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Can't see the match rn. Already a break of serve! How are both guys doing?

mugovic
missing returns against Diego serves
trying to end points early with dropshots

 

[MeatTornado]

Can't see the match rn. Already a break of serve! How are both guys doing?

Both look real good from the backcourt.

But Diego is surprisingly nailing his 1st serves and Novak keep donating points with drop shots.

 

[Tennis_Freak99]

Double break in sight

 

[mike danny]

Yeah yeah.
Ferrer was 5-3 in first set lost 5-7, second set was 5-3, lost 5-7.

Beautiful choke by Ferrer that day.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Diego breaks again

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Yeah yeah.
Ferrer was 5-3 in first set lost 5-7, second set was 5-3, lost 5-7.

Underrated match, that. One of the funnier straight-setters, as in ridiculous.

 

[junior74]

Djokovic is annoyed. I have never seen that before. He is usually so calm.

 

[MeatTornado]

Both look real good from the backcourt.

Well I guess I should take that back after Novak makes consecutive BH UEs to get broken.

 

[mike danny]

Diego up 3-0.

 

[Sysyphus]

sarcastovic

 

[onyxrose81]

Ok wow. That’s...wow.
