Highlights

DJOKOVIC IS THROUGH! 6-1, 6-3, 6-7 (2-7), 6-2. Well, he made slightly harder work of that than he might have, but Djokovic was far too good for Sandgren, who didn't have the game to trouble the Serbian.

*DJOKOVIC 5-2 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3, 6-7 (2-7)): And that should be that. Sandgren is running on vapours and so he's trying to shorten the points. This time, he is too rash.

*DJOKOVIC 4-2 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3, 6-7 (2-7)): Djokovic is frustrated. Even when things go right, he is feeling like they are going wrong. Sandgren is trying everything, but it feels a bit desperate.

DJOKOVIC 3-2 SANDGREN* (6-1, 6-3, 6-7 (2-7)): Huge hold from Sandgren to keep him in the match... just. Djokovic was up 0-30, but then Sandgren paints the line four times in a row.

*DJOKOVIC 3-1 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3, 6-7 (2-7)): The Serbian has regrouped here and looks to be in control of things once again. Djokovic holds to love. Pressure back on Sandgren.

*SANDGREN 1-2 DJKOVIC (6-1, 6-3. 6-7 (2-7): Sandgren just seems to have hit the wall here. The American is running on vapours. You get the feeling this match could be winding down now...

DJOKOVIC 0-1 SANDGREN* (6-1, 6-3, 6-7 (2-7): Hugely important service game for Sandgren. He looked to be in a little bit of trouble at 15-30, but finds some good serving.

SANDGREN STEALS THE THIRD SET! 7-6 (7-2). What a tie break from the big American! Djokovic is kicking himself, though. He should have closed out that third set and the match.

*DJOKOVIC 6-6 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3): What a hold from Sandgren to force the tie breaker at the end of the third serve! The American's best play in that game was a volley at the net that stopped Djokovic's passing shot dead.

*DJOKOVIC 6-5 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3): The pressure is back on Sandgren straight away. A hold to love for Djokovic, who wasn't troubled at all in that game by the American.

DJOKOVIC 5-5 SANDGREN* (6-1, 6-3): Well done, Sandgren! He faced a match point there. Djokovic had a look at a second serve on it, but Sandgren managed to grind out the hold.

*DJOKOVIC 5-4 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3): Sandgren will serve to stay in this third set and in this match. Sandgren goes on the attack, but Djokovic has too much variety for the American.

DJOKOVIC 4-4 SANDGREN* (6-1, 6-3): Impressive play from Sandgren. He could have crumbled there, but he actually played his best game of the match. He can chase down shots.

*DJOKOVIC 4-3 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3): Djokovic's backhand down the line isn't really working as well as it usually does, but he's doing enough to edge ahead in this third set.

DJOKOVIC 3-3 SANDGREN* (6-1, 6-3): Djokovic breaks back immediately! There was a mishit from the Serbian right on game point and that gave him control over the point.

*DJOKOVIC 2-3 SANDGREN (6-1, 6-3): A break for Sandgren! That was gift wrapped from Djokovic, who threw that away with two unforced errors and a double fault.
