HAPPY I COME HERE
WITH A SMILE AND,
AND I TRY MY BEST
FOR THE FIRST TIME
SINCE 2005, THE
AUSTRALIAN OPEN
FINAL WILL NOT HAVE
A MEMBER OF THE BIG
THREE IN IT.
>> WOW. INSANE WILD.
>> LINDSAY SAFFORD.
THAT'S HOW LONG AGO
IT WAS IN. OH MY
GOSH IT WAS.
>> WE TALKED
YESTERDAY. WE NEEDED
TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE
IT. YEP WHAT DID YOU
SEE?
>> YEAH, IT WAS
REMARKABLE
PERFORMANCE FROM
SINNER. ONE THING TO
DO WITH TWO OUT OF
THREE SETS INDOORS.
ANOTHER THING TO DO
WITH THREE OUT OF
FIVE SETS ON NOVAK'S
FAVORITE COURT. AND
STEVE EVERY SET.
HERE'S SINNER
WINNING FREE POINTS
ON HIS SERVE,
CRUSHING
GROUNDSTROKES,
DOMINATING THE
BASELINE RALLIES,
GETTING TO
EVERYTHING, FEELING
COMFORTABLE WHEN HE
MOVES FORWARD,
PLAYERS LOOK AT
PARTS OF THEIR GAME
TO IMPROVE.
CERTAINLY YOU'RE
OKAY IF I WANT TO
WIN A MAJOR. I GOT
TO DO X. IT LOOKS
LIKE SINNER TOOK HIS
GAME AND WENT, OKAY,
I'M GOING TO IMPROVE
XYZ PLUS MORE AND
REALLY THE WHOLE
PACKAGE THAT'S
REALLY HARD TO DO.
NORMALLY YOU FOCUS
ON ONE AREA, MAYBE
TWO, BUT EVERYTHING
ABOUT HIS GAME IS SO
GOOD NOW. I WAS
IMPRESSED THAT HE
WAS ABLE TO KEEP IT
THROUGH THE COURSE
OF ALL FOUR SETS.
>> THAT'S WHAT I
THINK IS SO
IMPRESSIVE.
>> THIS IS A GUY
WHO'S GOT A HISTORY
OF LOSING FIVE
SETTERS AT MAJORS
LAST TIME HE PLAYED
NOVAK AT A MAJOR, HE
LOST IN STRAIGHT
SETS. HE LOSES THAT
MATCH POINT. NOVAK
ABSOLUTELY STEALS
THAT THIRD SET. WHAT
DOES HE DO? HE
RESETS AND WINS IN
FOUR. THAT WAS
REALLY IMPRESSIVE.
AND HERE'S A GRAPHIC
THAT GIVES YOU A
LITTLE SENSE OF THE
HISTORY HERE. UM YOU
KNOW FIRST ITALIAN
PLAYER THOUGH. AGAIN
WE POINT THIS OUT.
HE GREW UP AS FAR
AWAY FROM THE
AUSTRIAN BORDER AS I
AM FROM PRAKASH. I
WOULD, I WOULD, I
WOULD SAY THAT HE'S
ABOUT AS MUCH
TEUTONIC AS HE IS
ITALIAN, BUT, UH,
NO, I MEAN, THIS IS
REALLY IMPRESSIVE.
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN,
HERE'S A GUY WHO
SEES FOUR AND TWO
AGAINST OPPONENTS,
RIGHT. NUMBER ONE,
WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT
HIM FOR A FEW YEARS,
AND WE WERE WAITING
FOR THAT
BREAKTHROUGH. GUESS
WHAT? HE HAS BROKEN
THROUGH.
>> HE HAS. HE'S WON
19 OF HIS LAST 20
MATCHES DATING BACK
TO LAST OCTOBER.
PRAKASH. THREE OF
THOSE ARE AGAINST
NOVAK DJOKOVIC. WHAT
KIND OF STATEMENT
DID HE MAKE? WELL
BEING ABLE TO DO IT
IN A BEST OF FIVE
SET MATCH AT A SEMIS
OF A SLAM IS A
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT
BALL GAME
ALTOGETHER.
>> I THINK THERE ARE
TWO NOTABLE THINGS
TO LOOK AT. LINDSAY,
YOU TALKED ABOUT ALL
THE AREAS WHERE HE'S
IMPROVED, BUT BEING
ABLE TO SORT OF
EMOTIONALLY MANAGE
THAT IN A SITUATION
LIKE THIS WHERE HE'S
ONLY BEEN ONCE
BEFORE, HE'S ONLY
BEEN TO THE SEMIS
ONCE YOU'RE PLAYING
A GUY WHO'S TEN ZERO
IN SEMIS TO BE ABLE
TO MAKE ATTAIN THAT
AFTER HAVING THE
MATCH POINTS LIKE
YOU TALKED ABOUT,
JOHN IN THAT FOURTH
SET. AND JUST LOOK
VERY NATURAL THERE.
IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE
HE WAS GOING FOR A
HUGE WIN. HE LOOKED
VERY MUCH LIKE THIS
IS WHERE I BELONG
AND THESE ARE THE
KIND OF MATCHES I
SHOULD BE WINNING.
AND THEN ON TOP OF
THAT, ON A SEPARATE
NOTE, NOVAK, HE DID
LOOK SORT OF A
LITTLE SLOW ON THAT
FIRST STEP. HE
DIDN'T LOOK LIKE HE
HAD AS MUCH PUNCH ON
THAT FOREHAND ON
THAT BACKHAND, ALL
HIS SHOTS A LITTLE
OUT OF PLACE, 54
UNFORCED ERRORS. I
CAN'T REMEMBER THE
LAST TIME WE SAW HIM
DO THAT. THAT'S A
TOURNAMENT IN A BIG
MATCH. EXACTLY
>> A SEMIS OF A SLAM
TO KEEP GOING WITH
THAT MARTINA. I
MEAN, DJOKOVIC
HIMSELF SAID HE WAS
SHOCKED WITH HIS
LEVEL, ONE OF THE
WORST GRAND SLAM
MATCHES HE'S EVER
PLAYED. I MEAN, WHAT
HAPPENED, WHAT WENT
WRONG?
>> I THINK TWO
THINGS HAPPENED.
>> UH, JANNIK SINNER
IS TALL AND HE'S
MOVING SO MUCH
BETTER THAN HE USED
TO. AND WHEN NOVAK
HITS THOSE CORNERS,
HE'S USED TO GETTING
A WEAKER SHOT BACK.
BUT BECAUSE OF
YANNICK'S HEIGHT AND
REACH, HE WAS ABLE
TO NEUTRALIZE THOSE
SHOTS. SO HE WASN'T
ON DEFENSE MUCH
DURING THE RALLIES.
AND THE OTHER THING
THAT HAPPENED WHEN
YOU GET OLDER, THOSE
BAD DAYS GET WORSE.
AND THEY COME OUT OF
NOWHERE. ALSO, MAYBE
PLAYING DAYTIME, YOU
KNOW, HE'S PLAYED
FOUR OF HIS FIVE
MATCHES IN THE NIGHT
AND YOUR CLOCK
DOESN'T RESET AS
EASILY WHEN YOU GET
OLDER AS WELL. SO
IT'S A COMBINATION
OF ALL THOSE THINGS,
THAT THING THAT
HAPPENED AND UH,
NOVAK FOR THE FIRST
TIME DOESN'T GET A
BREAK POINT, WHICH
IS UNHEARD OF.
>> IT IS SHOCKING.
AND, UH, THE QUEST
FOR 25 IS GOING
