Showed a lot by getting two BPs to stay afloat in the set

4-1, D has cut the UEs..and he has missed a couple of drop shots but he doesn't need them now to get through Murray, who started this match on an incredible spell - and may have peaked?

Djoko looks unplayable now. Anyone would look tired.

Got Novak to deuce but actually it was fine from (thought andy could've made more of the last pt). The decisive moments are now here..

What a beautifully angled shot near the net for 4-1 in the 3rd - if you are going to dominate the men's game and make it a borefest play the game like this.

Novak holds all four slams - even if he doesn't beat the all-time slam record of Federer's (and given the state of the tour its looking shaky) this is a unique, perhaps once in a lifetime achievement.

Four in a row on three different surfaces is the greatest ATP achievement of the open era imo
Match was pretty dull aside from a fire start by Murray and the dramatic wobble at the end which obviously didn't matter. I don't think Djokovic was unplayable by any means - occasionally excellent but Murray was barely competitive for most of the last hour.
