Clinical service performance of Noah [7] – in the 2nd set he held six times without any troubles (four games at ‘love’ two at ’15’). Lendl [1] was under a constant pressure, in the 2nd set he won three games saving break points including a triple match point at 4:5. “I don’t want to sound like it was just another day,” Noah said, “but there were days when I had 20 aces. I don’t feel I played my best match ever. I was never in trouble on my serve and feeling confident and loose. He made a lot of mistakes.”
