it was 2 years ago that djokovic beat tsonga. i remember it pretty clearly cuz i backed the black superman. i had tsonga 1st set and that paid a profit for my eventual loss. tsonga hit a high defensive lob that won him the 1st set.
djokovic was at the peak of his game back then. his shots were deep and didn't allow the big tsonga from coming to the net where he is most comfortable.
since that time tsonga is 4-1 over the joker but the joker won the last match. now other ppl at other forums are saying that tsonga almost lost to almagro and will not have stamina to win this one. the way i see it is the joker had a real easy draw so i really doubt he is in the same form that day 2yrs ago in australia. this was tsonga's first 5 setter and the guy did not wilt under pressure when he actually trailed in the tiebreaker.
tsonga or as i call him the superman cuz he is an ali lookalike punches his way to a victory.
