his been nervous since the 4th game of the second set. The only way to win is for him to pick this second set, that will put Djoko under immense pressure and he is sure to crack at some point. At 1 set all na wahala be that o.

Djokovic has made better adjustments than Tsonga as the game has progressed.

He has kicked his second serve to Tsonga's backhand forcing a lot of errors.

He has also nullified Tsonga's forehand.


Tsonga just missed a great chance to win the set. That might be his chance gone.


Lets see if he holds

I am bitterly disappointed. Between playing a fantastic first set
and losing his serve to Djokovic in the second Tsonga simply took his foot off the pedal
and he was never really able to regain the earlier momentum.

But Djokovic played a fantastic match. His serve started to have more kick causing errors
and he just dominated the rallies and he started reading Tsonga's serve so accurately.

Whether this was due to Djokovic's power or Tsonga slacking off it is hard to tell.
But I reckon it was the latter. Those shots that were finding the baseline in the first
simply grew tamer and tamer as the match progressed.

Anyway---------What I fervently hope is that Tsonga doesn't go the way of Johansson, Schuetler
and to a lesser extent Baghdatis who have seemed to be one hit wonders. I hope this isnt the last
time we see him in a grand slam final.

Smhow, i knew tsonga was never g'onna cut it. . . . . .  He had a massive challenge in djoko/fed. . . . On grass, Djoko is arguably world no.2
i still see it as a fairy-tale cuz its a 1st 4 djoko.
Well, well. . . . Can anybody put their money on federer going grand-slamless this season !?

Djokovic's technique was simply superior i mean you have to be something special to beat Federer on grass Tsonga was a bit too raw and want technical enough to beat Djokovic oh well at least My baby momma won her 3rd grand slam
