Rogers Cup, Toronto

Taking the match 6-2, 6-2 against [CR1] Novak Djokovic (SRB) today was no mean feat. It has been awhile since [CR15] Jo-Wilfried Tsonga’s (FRA) last victory against Djokovic, Tsonga has to be feeling ecstatic.

So many times he was so close to victory and today there was no resistance from Djokovic.  The expected fight that one usually gets from Djokovic was completely missing, maybe he is distracted by the other recent major events in his life. Yet, you cannot discount Tsonga’s win today.  If you step out on the court as a professional, you imply that you are ready to play; however, it seems that only one player came prepared to play today.
