Djokovic has problem with respiration, while that nadi believes. My country is, conosco his family, and it is true that it has problem. When the weather is so hot and wet as in australia, this very difficult to play.

[ConservativeNewMedia]

@europa1967 Yes, it was sad to see Djokovic struggles with his breathing. Hopefully he will be able to fix this by next year.

why aren;t tennis players tested for drugs like every other sportsman

[ConservativeNewMedia]

@Farmer2492 Respect to both men -- what an amazing match!

If Djokovic manages to recover , he'll beat Nadal .. but don't you guys think that Djokovic is NOT playing at the level he was in the most of 2011 ? He seemed tired midway something we haven't seen throughout 2011.... and he was panting after every 20 shot rally .. which was so unlike the Djokovic of 2011.. Any thoughts guys ?

[ConservativeNewMedia]

@TheFedererNadallover Djokovic is playing at his same level, but something is off with him physically. Maybe it's just the breathing, I'm not sure.

@Farmer2492 if your talking about steroids than it is because any tennis player that takes steroids would not be able to win a match because of the mental effects it has on someone... so no tennis player would take steroids

[Farmer2492]

He can take the cup home and shove up his serbian arse

[thrillseeking]

@ConservativeNewMedia there are few other players that had problems, they say some kind of flower is to blame - pollen and stuff. Novak was asthmatic as a kid so it seems logical.

[TheFedererNadallover]

@ConservativeNewMedia But 63 unforced errors is just not Djokovic... I don't remember him making so many errors in any of his matches in 2011..And yeah.. he is totally struggling physically!
