Novak Djokovic celebrates after defeating Juan Martin del Potro during the men's final of the US Open tennis tournament on Sunday. It was Djokovic's 15th win over the Del Potro and fifth in five at the Slams. The effort took its toll on a suddenly weary-looking Del Potro as a 95-minute set was claimed by Djokovic in the tiebreak. Del Potro was looking at having to become the first man since Pancho Gonzales in 1949 to win the US title from two sets down. Djokovic sprinted into a 3-1 lead in the third set before a battling Del Potro clung on, hitting back for 3-3.
