Wimbledon 2018 R4 - Djokovic (12) vs Khachanov

[RS92]

Djokovic lost just one set (against Edmund) in his previous 3 matches, meanwhile Khachanov lost 5 (1 against Ferrer, 2 against Baghdatis and 2 against Tiafoe).

They haven't played before.

 

[tennisaddict]

I can see this match going 4 sets at the minimum

 

[Rago]

Djokovic in 3 sets; good luck to Khachanov trying to avoid bakery products especially after having played two consecutive 5 setters.

 

[TearTheRoofOff]

I smell bakery products.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

What about Karen's serve? Any problem for Novak there?

 

[tenisdecente]

4 sets max for Djokovic. Don't see how this kid can trouble Ultron

 

[The Green Mile]

Novak in three kisses.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Novak in 4! Hoping he gets to the semis. Will be a success if he gets back to a slam semi again.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Let's go Djoko.

 

[joekapa]

The last match took a lot out of Djokovic. Did it awaken the beast within.....or did it wound him. We will find out soon. Logically Djokovic in 3.

 

[Tshooter]

Djoker eats ball bashers for breakfast.

 

[Zebrev]

His participation check won't be the only dough Karen will receive for that match.

 

[Red Rick]

Is there anything Khachanov does better than Edmund on grass?

 

[FHtennisman]

Maybe serve a bit better? Not sure.

 

[Sentinel]

Novak in straight sex.

er I mean sets.

 

[Adv. Edberg]

Should be Djoko in 3. Might be a tight set or two though.

 

[steenkash]

Seems like everybody and their mothers really want Novak to lose. Crowd and Pundits all against him. I really hope he wins this title.

 

[vex]

His participation check won't be the only dough Karen will receive for that match.

Heh, now we’re cooking

 

[Adv. Edberg]

Let's see if Djoko can finish the match today. He's got about 2 hours.

 

[Nostradamus]

Commentator just said they can play til 9:30 pm............. lol. is he serious ??? with Kachanov serving bombs, that's not fair to Novak, is it ?

 

[NoleFam]

Disgraceful Wimbledon strikes again. Last year, Djokovic was the only player who had to come back the next day and play his 4th round match after everyone else finished, even though Centre Court was wide open. This year he is screwed again while they put a mixed doubles match on Centre and leave him out on Court 1. Wimbledon is the most biased of all the Slams when it comes to scheduling and they are a disgrace. They have always been like this too and used to treat Sampras like he was a step child, throwing him out on Court 2.

 

[RS92]

Not a good start for Djokovic

 

[zagor]

Kachanov breaks, bad serve and volley attempt from Novak.

 

[stringertom]

Opening break by Silent K...looks very solid early but 14 sets played may take its toll.

 

[Tennisgods]

What a brilliant opening game. A couple of hours of this quality striking would be nice!

 

[BeatlesFan]

Khachanov could make his life so much easier if he just came to net on some of his wicked groundstrokes.

No idea what Djokovic has done to p1ss Wimbledon off. Maybe the LTA is still sore about the fact that he's beaten Andy so many times and refused to represent GB all those years ago.

 

[onyxrose81]

Novak really needs to start matches better. That's why he won't be winning much of anything. He always gets himself into a hole. Maybe he needs to stop electing to serve first all the time.

 

[Deleted member 512391]

Sick defense from Djokovic to get three break points.

 

[maticftw]

That last rally♡

 

[zagor]

3 BPs for Novak.

Khachanov could make his life so much easier if he just came to net on some of his wicked groundstrokes.

Next-gen player, come to the net? You're joking, right?

 

[BeatlesFan]

Clay court match on a grass court. Unreal.

 

[stringertom]

Rebreak at love. No aggression from KK.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Next-gen player, come to the net? You're joking, right?

My point stands. He wouldn't have been broken had he followed up some of his wicked groundstrokes into the net for the easy put away.

They're still mad that he didn't represent them. Every Wimbledon they used to make up sensationalized trash articles about him on trash tabloid sites as well. AELTC has their favorites and picks over others and have always been biased as well. Nothing new.

 

[Djokovic2011]

Have these two ever played each other before?

Never

No, first meeting

Don't get it why they don't start the matches at 11:30 on CC and C1 on this day so there is enough daylight for everyone. At least start the matches at 12 pm.

 

[Djokovic2011]

Thanks guys.

No.

One would think the prestigious All England Club would be above partisan scheduling mind games. One would think wrong.

There are no easy putaways for brick hands next-gen ballbashers.

I know. It's ridiculous to be starting these matches at 1 PM.

[Nostradamus]

Khachenov seem to be red lining his game but he is only on serve with Novak. that is not a good sign

 

[NoleFam]

They aren't. They have a history of bias when it comes to their scheduling.

 

[Badabing888]

I do want to see a Novak v Rafa semi and it to be an epic 5 setter. So come on Nole!!!

 

[Athique Rehman]

I want Nole to win so we potentially get a Nole vs Rafa SF. That way either way Federer fans will be worried.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Djokovic's body language not good
