Djokovic in the expanded Geneva final

This is the second time Djokovic in the final this season, after Miami expanded. He aims to become the third person in the history after Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer reaching the 100 championship. But from the 6-5 lead in this series, the Serbia player lost three points and had to enter the decision set.

Norrie, who is 90 ATP, makes it difficult for Djokovic thanks to the durability after Baseline. In the first set, the UK player created a balanced battle and only lost because of a break-point difference. But in Set Ba, Norrie could no longer resist when Djokovic accelerated and controlled the pace. The owner of 24 Grand Slam often forced the opponent to the end of the field with heavy and deep shots, then dropped small points. Serbia player completely dominated the three sets, won two of the three players to support the first ball to overtake 5-1 and end the match with the decisive game. Earlier in Set Hai, Djokovic was led 2-5 but still pulled Norrie into the tie-break series.

"This is definitely my hardest match from the beginning of the tournament," Djokovic said. "There are a few times I am a bit tense and Norrie did well. But I was really happy with the performance at the BA ".

Djokovic lost the last three finals and the person who could make him the fourth failure, Hubert Hurkacz. Polish player defeated Sebastian ofner 6-3, 6-4 in the semi-final to maintain the achievement of winning the set from the beginning of the tournament. Hurkacz has spent more than a year empty-handed on the tour and this is the 12th final of the UK. But the 10 -year -old gap between the two players is also an obstacle for Nole on the ground of the plot that requires abundant physical strength.
