Boris Becker, no longer Novak Djokovic’s coach but watching on TV, accurately summed up his former player’s first match against Andy Murray in 2017.
‘Bad news for the rest,’ declared the German via his Twitter account, and there could be little arguing with that after a dramatic Qatar Open final.
Djokovic won a match that crackled with quality and tension 6-3, 5-7, 6-4 in a familiarly energy-sapping two hours and 54 minutes in which neither player gave any quarter. In the case of the Serb, he earned himself a point penalty when he angrily slammed his racket into the court when things turned against him late in the second set.
