this could only happen if he's relaxed and not intimidated to hell by his opponent. that probably won't be the case, their last bunch of slam meetings Fed is jittery right off the bat, and only manages to stay in it because Djoker is the same for a bit. once Djoker starts feeling the ball and is able to return basically anything, that completely messes up Fed's rhythm and his first serve % will drop to 50 as he presses too hard and has to worry about immediately digging the return out from his feet.
the same will happen during rallies, when surefire Fed winners come back for point resets. I'm just going to prepare for the worst, and maybe be pleasantly surprised if it goes 4 or 5 sets.
