Novak the better player despite the break.

Alcaraz has probably covered twice the distance already, can't see him keeping this up.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

Not in this set really. He's been throwing in a lot of errors.

I think Novak has probably hit more errors in this game than he did in all of the first set.
Was looking at the stats and Novak hit 2 unforced errors in the first set so you're probably right.

Novak will likely end this set with more unforced errors than the first two sets combined.

They should just call the winner of this game the winner of the match and have it done with. We've all got lives/wives/families to get on with..

At this rate this game will last more than the rest of the match.

I know people say it over and over, but he can’t defy his years forever. He looks a bit rattled.
He does and he looks tired but we've seen this a hundred times.

Wow, that is one ballsy call by Novak. Unreal stuff.

Both players have.
Alcaraz seems to be very defensive, it's working so far but he can't keep it up all game I shouldn't think.

Just 200m more according to the app.

4km for Alcaraz and 3.8kn for Djokovic.

I actually am liking that. He can't go all out attack every point. its good to see some variation.

Looks like you're going to have to fight this out
It's not the quality is poor. It's actually each trading high quality shots causing errors from the other. A lot of these are not unforced errors. It's just challenging to maintain a high quality reply to a high quality shot.
