After reaching the semi-finals in Miami, Djokovic is one step closer to the first tour final of the new season! However, many people think that the Serbian king's 100th career crown is more stable!
The match, which was supposed to be played yesterday, could not be completed as scheduled due to the congestion of the schedule, and had to be postponed to this morning!
Before the start of the game, judging from the performance of Deyo against Musetti in the last game, many people strongly supported the Serbian king to advance to the semifinals without any problem, plus the two played each other in the final of Adelaide in 2023, when Deyo won in three sets, which made people feel that it was not easy for Korda to cause an upset.
However, there are still people who are worried about the situation of boxing and being afraid of being young. In addition, in the past, Deyo often had a slow heat, if he was seized by Koda because of this, his confidence and morale came up quickly, if he really went crazy, whether Deyo could still pass the test smoothly was really a big question mark, after all, the current Deyo has already been judged as two people compared with 2023!
From the start of the first set, Djokovic's performance was a relief that the Serbian king lived up to the trust placed in him, and the habitual slow heat did not appear, but quickly got into the groove.
In the first seven games, when the two formed a balance of power and played inseparable, in the eighth game, Deyo suddenly made a force and achieved a fatal break against Koda at a critical moment, thus taking a 6-3 lead.
Everyone's pre-match worries about Deyo finally appeared in the second set.
After Korda became the side under more pressure throughout the game, he wanted revenge and didn't want to hand over the game easily, so that the American suddenly felt like a chicken blood, and the state was quite vigorous, and he made a dream start like 3-0 at the beginning.
Especially after seeing Korda come to the commanding heights of the second set 5-2, fans and netizens in the live broadcast room bluntly said that the game is likely to play three sets, and at the same time began to worry about Deyo, "Entering the deciding set, whether the old father can withstand it makes people have to worry." ”
I thought that with Keda's strength, the game would be decided by the deciding set 100%, but I didn't expect that when he was cornered, Deyo once again let people see his brave performance at his peak, and under such great pressure, he actually tied the score. He had the last laugh when he advanced the second set to the tie-break, thwarting Koda's ambition in one fell swoop and advancing to the semifinals of the Miami Masters without danger.
After the game, many people said that from the fact that Deyo often dropped the chain at key moments in the field last year, they thought that this time under the pressure given by Koda, it would be difficult for him to perform the magical 2-5 script at his peak, but he did not expect him to do it, so that everyone can see the level of his giant, and he is still the Serbian king who can create infinite possibilities.
It is precisely because of Deyo's reversal and reversal at the critical moment that many fans and netizens firmly believe that the 100th championship must be stable, "Xiaode is still capable of doing everything he wants to achieve, the giant is not old, and most of the time last year was just napping." ”
With the victory over Koda, Djokovic surpassed Nadal's record of 410 wins at the Masters after reaching the round of 16 in Miami, and once again put a record for Swiss king Federer to rest.
Federer became the oldest semi-finalist in ATP Masters history at 37 years and 222 days after reaching the semi-finals at the Miami Masters in 2019, and now Djokovic has surpassed Federer at 37 years and 295 days to become the new holder of the record.
Of course, Djokovic's record in Miami doesn't end there, with another new record set to come with him competing for a ticket to the final with his friend Dimitrov.
The combined age of Djokovic and Dimitrov is close to 72 years old, making this contest the oldest semifinal matchup since the establishment of the ATP Masters.
The pair have faced each other 13 times in their careers so far, with Djokovic leading the way and the Serbian king maintaining a winning streak against Dimitrov in recent encounters. Therefore, this much-talked-about semi-final has not yet started, and many people have already joked: The handsome Bulgarian guy came to Deyo to present and congratulate his friends, and at the same time told the Serbian king that he could only help him clear the obstacles to this point, and whether he could win the 100th crown would have to rely on his own efforts.(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
