Unforgettable day, it felt so bizarre and wrong but I loved every second of it.

@Rafa undisputed Goat Rafa is gone.

Gotta disagree with that, Tennis is still mostly a popular sport in the west and not so much in the east. With the sport gaining traction now in Asia, the likes of Kei, Li Na, Chung Hyeon etc making it at the top. Its only a matter of time more and more Asian players will rise up to the stage. After all, there are way more population of Asian people than there are in anywhere else in the world, technically based on the law of large numbers, there should be more talent and chances for Asian players to make it big.

He would've been a serious issue for the big 4 if he were taller. His serves were just not at the level required to stay at the top

@@tatsuyasigh1906 A big serve would've helped him, but I think his main issues have been a bit of mental frailty, injuries and lack of consistency.

あの時のチリッチは別人でしたよね もしジョコビッチが勝ってたとしても チリッチが優勝してた気がします

What a match today

2019じゃねw

オリンピックのナダル戦も！

自分は2011バーゼルのSFのジョコビッチ戦かな...

2017年全豪のフェデラー戦もめっちゃ面白い

2018のUSオープン、チリッチ戦もえーよ！

準決勝後フェデラーに「今まで戦った相手で1番強かった」と言わせる程やからな笑

なんでちょうど錦織が絶好調の時にスーパーチリッチになるんや…

There are better matches out there like Djokovic vs Nadal 2012 AO Final. That match is the greatest match I've ever seen.

Bet you haven’t watched lots of matches tho

Thank you

It's the same with RBA they both have a similar baseline playstyle with Djokovic with the exception that Novak is more clutch and better at serving. When RBA and kei can keep up with Novak on the baseline, Novak outserves them. When players can keep up on serve with Novak he usually outrallys them.

Didn’t he lose to tomic at Wimbledon

@@michaelumana8853 no🤡

Roger Federer did it from 2004 Wimbledon to 2010 Australian Open.

@@tombillington8187 yea I don’t know why I thought that

@@michaelumana8853 probably because he faced Tomic in 2011 Wimbledon, which was somewhat a close battle, and then Tomic beat him in Hyundai Hopman cup in 2013. Those two memories might have gotten mixed up I guess.

And lost to the tallest Slam winner ever (tied with Delpo and Meddy)

What do you like about old scoreboard compare to now

Not stamina left unfortunately

@@nascentnaga i wasnt being sarcastic, i would have loved nishikori to win

He was in the top 5 for 2 years!

2011もじゃね？

2015のときのジョコビッチが一番倒せん。全く負けなかった

Take and deep breath and ask your self. Can he really win with that serve and height?

@@roydondsa 5'10 isnt a massive deficit in tennis. his serve has been consistent. its totally possible my guy

@@ryantruong6452 lol

@@ryantruong6452 not possible right now. he would get destroyed by novak, rafa and nextgen

Cilic was in the zone whole tournament. Niahikori didn't really stand a chance.

@@SHVideografie Nishikori beat both Djokovic and Stanimal. Cilic would not have beat either. Nishikori is the deserving winner in my eyes.

All in all, no, there was absolutely nothing wrong with Djokovic. He was doing everything he always does. The thing is, sometimes, you meet someone who is absolutely on the zone and no matter what you do, you will be beaten. Nishikori was absolutely FLAWLESS in that SF but then again that's the kind of tennis you have to play to beat the best ever. Djokovic had no answer to Kei's thunderous return winners which were like a mirror to Djokovic's own. Nishikori was as fit as ever and was absolutely anywhere and everywhere covering the court efficiently. Add to that the absolute ridiculous power and precision the Japanese had when hitting the ball down the line and crosscourt giving Djokovic no chance. He moved Djokovic very well but he also could finish the points. Djokovic clearly couldn't adapt to Kei's game. You can see how powerful were Djokovic's serves and still Nishikori hit winner after winner in the return. That is the exact moment you realize you are helpless because Djokovic is supposed to be the one neutralizing powerful servebots. All in all, Nishikori probably played the best match of his life and deserves every ounce of respect he got out of that. Make no mistake. Again, there was absolutely nothing wrong with Djokovic. He lost because Nishikori played next to perfect tennis. Stunning performance.

​@@DandanGallagherAbsolutely everything you've said there I agree with. I can't help but feel there are some overzealous Djokovic fans in this comment section who probably still to this day are in disbelief of how he lost this match. Sadly, there were and still are a lot of people who don't/didn't realise how quality and talented Nishikori was.

Yes, you are absolutely right...☝🏻

It's maybe a feature of Queens New York dialect, they drop the initial 'h' in words, such as 'huge' (an example is Donald Trump), so it may also be applied to 'historic'. As a matter of fact, Flushing Meadows is located in Queens. Or it's just a mistake..

I think it was okay! Not necessarily racist, everything he said was true, not biased towards either side, appreciate an honest straightforward commenter.

Male I think Li Na was in grand slam finals before this… But yes, he was the first male Asian player to reach a grand slam final 👍😄🔥

Even though American by nationality, Michael Chang is Asian and won a grand slam 25 years prior to this. He also was in the US Open Final in 1996.

Li Na is the First one

Djokovic till now done nothing in Roland garros. Roland garros belongs to only nadal

@@sourabhdebnath685 um... hes defeated nadal twice there and won twice there. "done nothing"

Thats still a lot
