    As soon as you said that I thought he had a chance lol, just broke Djokovic twice in the 1st set to blitz it 6-2 ! Long way to go but Djokovic doesn't seem to have any energy in his play. Could be his famous lull them in strategy of course.

    All Norrie can do is play good, consistent tennis and see how it goes.

    So far so good, great start

    Terrible errors from Norrie gifts Djokovic a break to lead 5-3. Hope that slip the game before hasn't done damage to Norrie's ankle

    More errors from Norrie and he's handed the 2nd ser to Djok. You can't gift free points like that against him, momentum with Novax now

    Novax breaks immediately at start of 3rd, neither player near their best. Norrie's 1st serve and forehand letting him down, handing away points

    Norrie had his chance, but made way too many errors. Once Novax found some form it was all over. Should be a good final !

    I thought he had little or no chance.
    The final could be a good watch.

    Novax saves 4 break points and takes the set. That game could well prove pivotal

    Great match.
    Djokovic will prove to be too consistent for Krygios in the end I reckon.

    Not sure. I think Kyrgios could do it if he keeps his head. Big 'if'.

    Absolutely.
    He seems to be very much on the edge right now.
    I think kyrgios simply must win the third set.

    Players like McEnroe would use their bad temperament to improve their game.
    Kyrgios seems to fall apart when he loses it.
    Djokovic won't be affected by any of it.
    Have to say, as much as I admire his ability, kyrgios is starting to annoy the hell out of me.
    If he can reign it in and win the third set he has a great chance.
