He did switch coach to Magnus Norman. He's always had the game and that great backhand but was like Gasquet, brainless and couldn't win a big match.
That loss to Djokovic in last years AO (10-8 in the 5th) i believe triggered something in his mind that "yes, I can play with these guys" and it launched his season. Then losing in Djokovic again in 5 sets in NY cemented that belief. And playing Djoker again last night he believed he could win and he did it.
