GAME, SET, MATCH - DJOKOVIC! Djokovic 4-6, 6-3, 6-3 Medvedev: The world number one clinches it with a forehand winner and that was an exceptional match between two men at the top of the game! Incredible tennis! Very impressive. Djokovic just had the edge.
16:25
DJOKOVIC 5-3 MEDVEDEV* (4-6, 6-3): One break back! Medvedev benefits from a net cord on break point against the Djokovic serve and the double break is now just a single break again!
16:19
*DJOKOVIC 5-2 MEDVEDEV (3-6, 6-4): Double break! That might be that! It was another loose game from Medvedev who put a forehand in the net on break point. Djokovic is one game away!
16:15
DJOKOVIC 4-2 MEDVEDEV* (3-6, 6-4): Has a shift in momentum taken place? It feels that way. Medvedev is trying a bit too hard to get on the front foot and that is resulting in unforced errors.
16:11
*DJOKOVIC 3-2 MEDVEDEV (3-6, 6-4): Break! That could be the crucial moment in this third and deciding set! Djokovic disrupted Medvedev's flow with some slices and it worked!
16:06
DJOKOVIC 2-2 MEDVEDEV* (3-6, 6-4): Serve and volley from Djokovic to clinch game point on his own serve. That has been a useful tactic for the world number one this afternoon.

16:00
*DJOKOVIC 1-2 MEDVEDEV (4-6, 6-3): The Serbian had an opportunity at 30-30 on Medvedev's serve, but the US Open champion finds his first serve and that makes all the difference.
15:57
*DJOKOVIC 1-1 MEDVEDEV (4-6, 6-3): Djokovic went 40-0 ahead in that game, but Medvedev won the next two points and then missed a volley at the net that he really should have made.
15:51
*DJOKOVIC 0-1 MEDVEDEV (4-6, 6-3): A good hold from Medvedev at the start of the third and deciding set. Don't expect the world number two to fade away. He will embrace this challenge.

15:33
*DJOKOVIC 5-3 MEDVEDEV (4-6): Medvedev keeps himself in this second set with a hold of serve, but he might merely have delayed the inevitable. Djokovic to serve for the set.
