This Unorthodox Player Toyed Prime Djokovic, What Happens Next is Crazy!

This is one of the most unique tennis matches you will ever see. Nine years ago, in the quarterfinals of the Miami Masters, Novak Djokovic in his absolute prime level faced off against Alexander Dolgopolov, one of the most unorthodox players in tennis history. Trust me when I tell you, this match is different from anything you've ever seen before.

Thank you so much for watching and without further ado, let's get started. And also again, where he's positioned this volley, which is the right place. Playback there from Djokovic, saw him coming. Misjudged the return, but he certainly didn't misjudge that pass. Cool as you like on such a big point. What luck, Djokovic looking to take command, but finds himself a break behind. Not the best drop shot you'll see from Djokovic. And then driving this last shot after Djokovic. And that was also a marvellous stroke as well from Dolgopolov. Great serve, Djokovic covering the open space. I think it also happened with Mannheim. But all too rapidly, the advantage has slipped and the world number one has restored. That's the way to do it. Mirroring what we see so often from Djokovic and Andy Murray. But can you read that forehand? I mean, I think we all see he's shaping up for the cross court. Djokovic certainly. Not the cleanest return, but the angle and the short length work for him a treat because it opened the court. And here's another break point. Lining them up again and again. Once again, Djokovic slamming the racket. Here he is. Breaking his racket as a result. And having already had one warning for ball abuse, got another warning for that. So it's a point penalty. Again, Djokovic. There it goes. 15 long. Well, you see there how he just sucks the ball out. Jumping Jack Flash, that was. 15. He's trying to half volley everything. Court working so well for Djokovic. Well, he deserved a bit of luck with that volley again. It is his first set. Incredible return from Djokovic. Somehow Djokovic there to cover it. 7-6. And a blistering challenge. What a marker this has been for him against the champion. He hugs the tie break. It was noticeable there, the pause before Djokovic decided to. He's made that. Spectacular. Astonishing. And what a serve again. It's such a potent mix. He's dropped out to a 3-0 lead in the second set. And once again the serve under assault here. Makes the line. Finally gets it. Some relief for the serve. Chose well. It's 4-1. Djokovic might win this before sundown. This time it works Djokovic's way. 4-2. That's worked so well for him. Use of the serve and volley. He's missed it. He went for it again, but this time in the net. And it's Djokovic back on track. 3-4 in the second set. There you go. That is against the best returner in the world. Breathtaking. Absolutely breathtaking. Djokovic, a break clear now. He'll serve for the second set. 15-0. If he's allowed to. 14-0. Into a final set they go. Will he storm through that? Or can Djokovic respond again? Could see it coming. Djokovic. Can't find the court. I think he'd won until that last point. 22 of the last 23 points. Djokovic. On course it seems now. For the quarter-finals. Still very much involved in the bottom half. 14-0. Neither of you are struggling. Potentially your opponent faltering near the finishing line. Time to stick the fork in this one. 5-0. And really nothing left for Djokovic. It's for the match. Through he goes again to the quarter-finals. He'll face David Ferrer next. But boy was he given a run for his money in the first couple of sets. Shame it didn't last for Djokovic. But the serve, as you say, is made of granite. And he stands tall. Well the world number one was within 3 points of going out. But it's never a lost cause for Novak. Get your popcorn ready. Because I guarantee you have never seen and will never see a tennis match like this ever again.
