The world number one did not have to strain his talent to win in three sets against Etcheverry
After conceding a set in his first two matches in Melbourne, Novak Djokovic was reassured on Friday. The Serb, favorite in his own succession, won three sets to nothing against the Argentinian Etcheverry (6-3, 6-3, 7-6 (7/2)).
In the first set, he broke to lead 4 games to 2, and was in the lead until the end. Bis repeated in the second, during which he won by the same score (6-4) thanks to a break very early in the round (2-1).
To conclude this third round, Djokovic still had to go through the tie-break box, after a third round during which neither man managed to gain the upper hand over his opponent. And as is often the case, it was the Serb who showed himself to be the strongest at the decisive moment. Thanks to this tie-break won 7-2, he earned the right to continue his journey towards an eleventh coronation in Melbourne.
