Djokovic Sweeps Ruud to Win 23rd Major at Roland Garros | Monday Match Analysis

On this week’s Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross breaks down Novak Djokovic’s historic Roland Garros title, giving him three French Open titles and a new record 23 major titles. He defeated now two-time runner-up Casper Ruud in the final. We’ll talk about Djokovic’s unmatched resume, how Novak was able to win the first set with toughness and willpower despite coming out tight, what patterns he used to dominate play off the ground in sets 2 and 3, and finally an argument that Djokovic is the greatest marvel of athletic longevity in the history of sports, even more so than worthy contenders like Serena Williams, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and even Lebron James and Tom Brady. 00:00 Intro 00:45 Historical 05:08 1st Set Grinding 14:13 Offensive Patterns 26:00 Big Finish 28:19 Longevity GOATs Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/monday-match-analysis/support IG: https://www.instagram.com/gillgross_/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gill.gross 24/7 Tennis Community on Discord: https://discord.gg/wW3WPqFTFJ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/Gill_Gross The Draw newsletter, your one-stop-shop for the best tennis content on the internet every week: https://www.thedraw.tennis/subscribe Become a member to support the channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvERpLl9dXH09fuNdbyiLQQ/join Evans Brothers Coffee Roasters, the Official Coffee Of Monday Match Analysis... use code GILLGROSS25 for 25% off your first order: https://evansbrotherscoffee.com/collections/coffee AUDIO PODCAST FEEDS Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5c3VXnLDVVgLfZuGk3yxIF?si=AQy9oRlZTACoGr5XS3s_yg Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/monday-match-analysis/id1432259450?mt=2 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
