    First set was a true battle. Long rallies, neither player had easy service games.

    Del Potro choking on the big points. Djoker lucky

    joker hates when the crowd is against him. No reason other than rooting for delpo, but joker is not happy at all.

    He plays the villain role great though

    he used to be the villain all the time, but recently past 1-2 years he generally gets the crowd support, but tonight they are all over delpo and he isn't happy haha

    delpo misses 2 break point chances and then gets broken misses easy forehand right into the net. Joker gave up on point too

    Think it has to do with his 15-4 losing h2h record and long layoff, lacking that killer instict.

    idk set 2 he was down 5-2 and serving and down 30-40. Joker had set point and then delpo won to make it 5-3 and then broke to even get back into the set.

    Delpo is basically back, but maybe missing the kill instinct like you said. His heart and power are there for sure

    Del Potro had him on the ropes on that first match point in the tiebreaker but overcooked the forehand. Not much margin for error in tennis against these guys

    Sharps have a case to back Schwartzman who picked up form lately. Joker played a 3 hour thriller vs. Delpo. Fatigue angle.

    mehhh, the problem with schwartzman is his size. He doesn't have a big serve so he has to control the rallies. Against joker there's no chance he can consistenly controls the rallies.

    Only way Schwartzman wins is if Joker has 30+ errors

    Yep if Diego had a serve he would have a shot, but in normal circumstances he may struggle to hold every service game. But who knows Djokovic could tank to have some rest.

    Schwartzman holding his own right now. Matching ground strokes and winning long rallies
