Novak Djokovic 6-3 *1-0 Diego Schwartzman. Djokovic’s game is starting to flow here and he has now won four consecutive games in a row. From deuce, he split the Schwartzman deference apart, drawing an error with a great forehand. At break point, he calmly threw in a slick drop shot and lob combo, before moving into the net and closing off the point with a solid overhead.
Despite the one blip from Djokovic, that was otherwise a solid set of tennis. Schwartzman did his best to stay with the No 1 but he just could not maintain his level throughout. Djokovic ended the set from 30-30 with a blazing point-ending backhand down-the-line, followed by another unreturned serve.
