Djokovic’s career after false start
Djokovic used his third match point after 1:53 hours. The Serbian, who was last disqualified in the US Open quarterfinals because he accidentally shot a linesman with a ball, got off to a very bad start at Foro Italico and gave up his first two service games. But then the world number one came up and after 1:12 hours with the fourth set the ball still got the first round.
Schwartzman, who had surprisingly beaten Nadal in the quarterfinals, made life difficult for Djokovic even afterward. However, number 15 in the world. don’t take advantage of your break opportunities. Instead, Djokovic took his serve to 5: 3 and won the tournament a little later.
