Ivan Drago of Tennis, an unbreakable Machine. Simply Put.
Wow!!! He won Australian Open, French Open AND US Open all in 2023. That is AMAZING!!!!
🎉 Congrats to you Novak Djokovic . Awesome job 👏 👍
solute to both players. both played at their limit!
What a LEGEND. THE LEGEND. THE GOAT. I'm so proud of him!!
That was a non boost performance. All naturaale
he is the best
Couple of baselines with not much variety. Mainly side to side predictable tennis.
Unbelievable ball striking on both sides. Couldn’t believe how long that second set was. Was incredible to watch.
Nadal: Most intense, fighting warrior spirit
Djokovic: The Greatest, most accomplished player to walk the Earth
Federer: The most loved, respected, influential, iconic, greatest ambassador of the sport 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Novak is just unbelievably amazing! The oldest man to have won the US Open. If there was any confusion as to who is the GOAT this should erase all confusion and doubt. The haters are livid right now. All he’s doing is playing clear clean tennis and the haters can’t stand how effortlessly he makes it look
Good Jocko I think you work for it and deserve it the way it was, many blessings 🎾🎾🎾
Novak is the GOAT!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
WOW!! 😍😍
No vax Novak! Love his strength!
21:34 really gives you an idea of how crazy Novak's backhand is.
The fact they don’t put the Russian flag next to Medvedev is actually bonkers.
The only way to win Novak is play like Carlos , Not Rally back and forth

These guys couldn't sniff my nuts. I'm the best in my apartment in Wii Tennis. Obviously I'd beat Novak heads up. Im just biding my time for him because he's an amateur.
What I found most striking about the match was Novak's willingness to go to the net so often and dump drop volleys short when Medvedev was 15 feet behind the baseline. Novak won 37 out of 44 points at net in a 3 set match…that's an 84% winning percentage. Novak also used his sliced backhand brilliantly to mix things up. In short, Novak put on a tactical masterclass. No need allowing a match to go on for 5 sets who you can get the job done in 3. Novak's been on the tour for 20 years now and needs to save his wheels. Tough luck Daniil.
Good for him!!
Who knew that when he beat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in that Aus final in 2008 that he would become the best all around tennis player in history. I don’t think anyone saw it coming then. People thought Roger was untouchable and then Rafa passed him and then Djoker left them both in the dust. I think in any sport there is debate but I think he separates himself out more in tennis than any other athlete in any sport, more than Jordan even and more than Brady. Cuz Brady had a weakness and it was his legs. Jordan didn’t have weaknesses but in a team game you have so many other variables. I think when you have 3 guys in a single sport who have won 20+ majors across multiple decades and on different surfaces, the variables cancel and even out. You have a large enough sample size to be able to say Yeah this dude was almost certainly better than that dude etc. especially bc they’re all in the same era.
Esse cara é fantástico
I'm so happy for Nole! Freaking GOAT. And yes, I do also like Nadal and Federer. Each man has brought tennis to incredible heights!
Media is not showing a lot of love to Novak as they're showing to Federer and Nadal. Why is that? Is it because he's coming from Balkan? Coming from unknown little country named Serbia? Regardless of media Novak has fan base and they like it or not he's making his own history. Unfortunately for them he will stay there for the long time.
Congratulations to both players on making this final, Daniil for being humble in defeat, and NO1e for making history.
Ima bet if Fritz or Tiafoe made it to the finals,the pathetic biased American media will make it sure the whole of US OPEN is all about an American making it through to the finals
What happened at 14:52? Somebody please explain.
that rally that starts at 17:42 is so awesome…just pure tennis
Russians must lose!
Novak ❤
Think that if Alcaraz would have played this final Alcaraz would have won the match. Per haps not easily but more spectacular with a great variety of shots and plays. Alcaraz had the guns enought to beat Novak and avoid the 24 victory .
This was a Final for the ages. Nothing Medvedev could hit seemed to not be answered by Novak. He seems to be inhuman sometimes how he gets to everything
After what he went thru as a 10 year old child in 1999, hiding in a bomb shelter from the Clinton/Blair/NATO war machine that just makes these victories that much sweeter. Kosovo is Serbia!
Victory for both men, in more ways than just on the court. Well done to both!
Wonderful Djokovic the best in history BUT for the big majority of you people reading this he was a COVIDIOT who was punished severely for a good reason so to save gran ma!!😅
To me an unvaxx like him I see the man over the athlete who is aware and wise who stood up against all of you. No Djokovic is NOT a sheep but a real shepherd. Is awaked and both of you are brainwashed.
Demon Australian government should go and shove it
Imagine for a moment that Meddy would've won; how the entire US Open stadium would've stand up and listen to the Russian anthem.. After all the non-listed country ban on emblems, flag, whatnot… That would've been so hilarious.. and unbelievable hypocritical..😆🤣😆
Such an amazing athlete. As a Nadal fan, then Roger fan, He is the greatest.
happy to see such boring tennis cause i don't like either of them for quite different reasons
Look, Novak won 24(!) GS singles titles in a best of 5 format!!!!! He's THE greatest tennis player, male or female, EVER! How many times must he prove that???!?! He's now won more GS singles titles than Serena, Rafa, and Roger. He's one of the greatest athletes ever as well. How many times must he prove this..? It took Alcaraz, a 20(!) year 5 hours and 45 minutes to be Novak at 36(!). So what did Novak do? He adjusted his game and then beat Alcaraz (who ducked him in this championship match). If Novak never lifts another racquet again, he STILL should be mentioned in the names of the greats such as Ali, Tiger, Jordan, Norman, Biles, Bolt! Enough debate already! He has surpassed Roger (I never did like him) and Rafa.
Fck the evil media. Novak reigns supreme.
First there was Brady (defying age/aging) then, there was/IS, Novak "the Joker" Djokovic.
And, he's "not done yet!!!!"
Can anyone link the bit where djokovic like loses his balance and falls over
Djokovic's a great tennis player, but still a punk because of his hurtful vaccine denial.
