If Novak wins the third set he will smoke him…

Dry as a bone. I think they always water the courts between sets.

When he is getting beat at his own game - case in point the two long defensive points Tsitsi won in the second set - Djok gets sullen and messy. If he comes out strong in the third, look out, we are gonna be here for a while. Remember that 2015 final where Stanislaus totally demoralized him?

Novak really hasn't gotten into any of Tsitsipas' service games in a while. Just the occasional big return.

I feel like he's going to break him here.

Well, he got one back. I still think he's going to have a hard time taking two more. He's going to be kicking himself for dropping that first set.

I don’t think that was a smart injury timeout for Stefanos.

You never take that break in time unless you are returning next. It ices the server

He may be about to receive a bagel or breadstick this set and just regroup and try to win the 5th.

Djokovic's level has risen. Tsitsipas will have to find the energy to lengthen the points and get in some rallies, because I think he will win most of those points.

This result seems inevitable at this point.

I don't see how Tsitsipas can regain his focus and nerves at this point. Novak's level will have to slip.

Stefanos is so fricked

Novak hasn’t even gone in “crazy eyes Eastern European I’m going to cut of your head and neck frick your corpse” mode yet

He is still calm and laid back

It’s starting to feel that way, but I’m hesitant to count him out yet.

If he can hold serve next set anything can happen.

Yeah I mean he absolutely needs to hold his serve the last service game of this set, and the first of the next set so he can play with a lead.
