It's an opportunity, it was a good return.
It's a well-constructed point, and midway through it, the backhand up the line that you...
Oh, it slips away, though.
Well, he holds, but that was hard.
It's too big, too strong.
It's more interesting, I guess.
Soaking up a fair bit of pressure there.
First time he's been in the last 16, in fact.
Now he's pushed it long.
Team in Barcelona this year.
Our team again this week, and then Kevin Anderson in Estoril, so...
It's a good set of tennis from Stephanos Tsitsipas, he looks composed and confident today.
Wow.
That's unplayable.
Ripped that one.
Injection of pace.
It slips away.
Oh, that's brilliant.
It's a lovely return.
That's better.
That's good enough, the volley.
Just couldn't quite get hold of the return of serve.
Oh, that's too big.
Again, took the initiative.
6-3.
Djokovic converts at the third time of asking.
Disappointment for Tsitsipas.
7-6.
Eventually was able to get one on the forehand side, Tsitsipas.
Well to turn the points around.
It's a sensible approach back behind Djokovic.
Got him off balance.
Oh, yes.
What a backhand.
What a time to produce it.
134k.
Tsitsipas needs to get fuller.
Oh, yes, what an angle.
Mental impact it will have on Djokovic.
Oh, yes.
Again, Tsitsipas.
Starting to turn on the style.
Wait and see.
Nonsense serve from Tsitsipas.
And a mishit from Djokovic.
Oh, yes.
It's a good move forward.
Couldn't get it done with the initial volley.
It's eye-catching.
Again, Djokovic.
It's a decent pace.
Very tidy indeed.
Oh, yes.
It served him well today, the forehand.
He's 25th winner of that week.
And he's standing on the break now.
It's another day to remember for Stefano Tsitsipas.
Whose 2018 just gets better and better.
Yet another top-10 victory for the 19-year-old.
But surely this is the biggest.
Against Novak Djokovic,
the recent Wimbledon champion.
And it's significant too
because he's into the quarter-finals of the Masters 1000
for the very first time.
