Novak Djokovic he hit an impressive volley and then crashed over Center Court at Rod Laver Arena. It acts like a croquette, folding in on itself. He doesn’t seem to want to get in the way of his left leg, which he’s been wearing with bandages and kinesiology tape since he suffered a left hamstring injury.
Novak Djokovic stood up and went to his seat. Seek medical help, as in previous games. He has shown problems with lateral displacements, he has not been to some balls.
The physical alarm hung over the Serbian, 35 years old and world number 5, which kept the whole world on edge. There are 77 minutes of the meeting. With a limping leg at times but decided in favor, 7-6 (9-7). He was unable to finish any of the three set points at 5-3, needing to come back from three games back, a pair at 5-6 and another in a tiebreak at 6-7.
At the most important moments, Djokovic came alive again, relying on a serve that he well maintained or emphasized his difficulties. Nine times champion of australia tomorrow, twenty-one Grand Slam titles to his credit. A lot of quality, also the ability to overcome limiting situations.
‘Nole’ invites unconditional fans and ‘haters’ to confront the true extent of the damage. the bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov, 31 years old and world number 28, is as neutral as his ability to threaten. A long wasted talent, with no killer instinct. His lack of force helped in a certain way in Djokovic’s survival 7-6 (7), 6-3 and 6-4 in 3h.07′.
That player who qualifies as ‘Baby Federer’ In his professional debut he continued to show his usual game, he did not vary to really test the opponent’s physique with drop shots or extending the court.
And, in addition, Novak Djokovic suddenly regained the freedom of lateral movement, as in the point of 31 shots that led to the ‘match’ point final. Another common denominator in recent days. He explained after defeating the French Enzo Couacaud that the drugs he took during the break to see worked after half an hour of taking them.
For one thing or another, whoever lifts the trophy in 2021, stomach-wounded from the third round, is pulling. Worry and pain appear, not infrequently he vents his anger and frustration by shouting at the members of his box.
On Monday, another test, against the Australian alex deminaurwho beat Pablo Carreño’s executioner, Frenchman Benjamin Bonzi, 7-6 (0), 6-2 and 6-1.
