About this episode
On this week's Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross recaps Novak Djokovic's straight set victory over Daniil Medvedev to win his 4th US Open title and 24th major. We'll start by discussing how this win cements 2023 as a pantheon season for the 36-year old Djokovic. Then, we'll go in depth on the pivotal 2nd set: how Medvedev executed his plan perfectly and why Djokovic's go-to tactic made sure that didn't matter in the end. Finally, we'll discuss Djokovic's strategic baseline variety and his success returning Daniil's 2nd serve. Our partner is AG1.
