    Things start to go against Djokovic and like clockwork he calls for a medical timeout. Then lo and behold from looking like he needs a stretcher he's like a man reborn to breeze through the next set, having successfully derailed his opponent's momentum. A miracle!
    He did that against Murray in a couple of Aussie finals. Hated him ever since

    Poor Nowak having a terrible time with his eyes now. Sun shining on them. Poor chap.

    A lot of fans don't like him simply because he's not Federer or Nadal and doesn't really provide much in the way of flair. Plus he does have a bit of a cyborg/pantomime villain air about him. You can see that not being a fans favourite really gets to him and he completely misread the crowd at Wimbledon last year when he thought they were booing him.

    Personally I was turned off him by his arrogant behaviour during the Covid epidemic.
    Yeh, Covid was when he really confirmed what a tool he is. Not so much the refusal to get vaccinated but the hosting of a big super-spreader event and then swanning around Europe in the full knowledge he'd tested positive.

    To be fair, Cilic is a world class player and has been pretty much unplayable in those opening 2 sets.

    Incredible tennis from Cilic given he’s fallen in the rankings.

    No doubt. It was never the walk in the park that it was dressed up to be. Outstanding tennis from Cilic.

    Cracking player and always been a bit underrated due to the era he emerged in.

    Disappointed for Draper but you can see he's got the quality and he'll hopefully learn from this.
