Medvedev seems to be too focused on making Novak work right now and not making enough winners. He's become too predictable

Plus Djokovic is playing unreal

These break points could be championship points.

Edit: There's the break and I think it's over.

A loose game from Novak and we're back on serve.

Sometimes I think Novak loses games on purpose just because he wants to make his victories more epic

No phone or dead fish celly, I am disappointed. Congrats to Novak, 24 grand slams is crazy.

Well congratulations to Novak on #24.

This concludes the men's major season, we had one great final all year thanks to Novak being still so far ahead of everyone not named Alcaraz.

Unless you're having a fantastic serving day, I don't know how you expect to beat Novak standing 10 to 12 feet behind the baseline on the majority of points.

That is my observation as well. Of course I don't really know how you'd beat him regardless but I feel like this approach gave Medvedev no chance really.

To beat Djokovic, you need to be Stanimal. Big power off both wings, willingness to rally and mentality to tell yourself that you're not going to be intimidated by the occasion.

Literally only Alcaraz meets these criteria right now.
