[Sport] Bautista pushes Djokovic to the limit but runs out of Cincinnati final

[#Steeven.™]

It could not be. Roberto Bautista had a titanic game and took Novak Djokovic to the limit, but finally the big favorite to lift the cup won. He did it in the tie break. The Serbian had to overcome the good first set of the Spanish and it took a long time to feel comfortable on the track. Nole managed to turn the scoreboard and for this he needed to break a serve with which Bautista won the match. Raonic, who beat Tsitsipas, awaits him in the final.

In the first set the Balkan was hasty, without any criteria before the game that the one in front was displaying. Bautista insisted on hitting backwards and Djokovic didn't know what to do. The dropouts I tried weren't successful either.

In the second sleeve the Serbian began to turn the situation around. Not without being treated for the neck by the ATP physiotherapist. His serve worked, so did his rights. The Castellón did not give up at any time and both finished the game exhausted by physical effort and, above all, mental.

The end was cruel to Bautista. In the tie break there was only one player, capable of making an ace with a second serve or closing the match with a smash. 7-0 in the tiebreaker and to think about the final. After 3 hours the scoreboard showed 4-6, 6-4 and 7-6.

Novak Djokovic already goes for the 22
The Serbian tennis player continues his spectacular start to the season. With his 21 victories since 2020 began, he has already signed the second best start to the year in history. It is already closer to the 41 that he himself achieved in 2011.

For his part, Roberto Bautista loses again to Djokovic on the fast track. He hadn't done it since the 2015 US Open. To date, the last three hard surface matches ended in a Spanish victory. The statistics were close to continuing.
