Francisco Cerundolo has gained confidence as the match has progressed.
I wonder if Novak Djokovic is going to be frustrated with himself here. The slippery court which has then hurt his knee, the ridiculously late finish has been out of his control but his frustration is something that he can control and he hasn’t been able to do that.
The shouting up to his box, the way that it has affected his game and the way that it has opened the door for his opponent to get back into the match.
Maybe it is more of a loss of focus today. He is just out of sorts right now. It’s like watching a different player and it started with the knee. That’s where the energy changed within the match.
