"When you see players on the baseline who are just about to serve," she said, "stop making noise for nothing."But on his first match point, Djokovic won a thrilling long rally befitting a great final with a forehand winner deep into the left of the court. He hugged his rival warmly at the net. Serving at 5-3, Djokovic saved three break points in a thrilling 12-minute game featuring tight rallies.
