It is one thing to win two sets in a Grand Slam match. Leading, 2-1, in the third set, Djokovic started jumping on Tsitsipas’s serve for the first time in nearly an hour, pushing him back into the court and moving him from side to side. His shots started landing in spots that left Tsitsipas totally out of position once he caught up to them. On the fifth break point of the game, Djokovic sent his return deep to Tsitsipas’s backhand, and Tsitsipas sent it back to the middle of the doubles alley. A masterly Djokovic backhand drop shot from behind the baseline gave Djokovic a second service break and a 3-0 lead.
