The Second Serve: A Symbol of Djokovic's Struggles?

The Second Serve: A Symbol of Djokovic's Struggles?
By Arthur Millot

Djokovic Safin Sinner Wimbledon

Once again after Roland-Garros, Djokovic faced Sinner in the Wimbledon semifinals. A matchup that has become routine on the tour, and for the fifth consecutive time, it favored the world No. 1 (6-3, 6-3, 6-4).

At 38, the Serbian appeared completely overwhelmed by the Italian's power and precision: 36 winners to just 17 unforced errors. Less sharp on his serves, Djokovic struggled behind his second serve, costing him a significant number of points throughout the match.

According to *Jeu, Set et Maths*, Djokovic won only 17% of his points after his second serve—just 5 out of 30. This statistic hadn’t been seen since 2005, during his match against Safin at the Australian Open. Back then, the Grand Slam record-holder conceded 22 points behind his second serve out of 27 played (19%, 5/27).

Interesting because when Federer's game began to fade he realized he had to depend more on his serve. He backed off his first serve some and got more of them in, giving him a slight advantage to end points quicker from the outset. But father time took that away too eventually.

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
