   A time when Djokovic [3] was turning from the biggest threat for the “Fedal” duopoly to the greatest player of all-time. He was fresh after helping Serbia to claim the Davis Cup trophy, and capturing his second major title in Australia. In Dubai his form was far from the best until the final in which he outplayed Federer [2] faster than people could have expected. The Swiss led 3:1* in the 2nd set when Djokovic collected five straight games, and it was the beginning of an amazing series of games won comparing to the lost ones, because in his next event (Indian Wells), he served bagel sets in his opening three rounds winning those matches easily.

   Djokovic’s route to his 20th title:
   1 Michael Llodra 6-3, 6-3
   2 Feliciano Lopez 6-3, 2-6, 6-4
   Q Florian Mayer 7-5, 6-1
   S Tomas Berdych 6-7(5), 6-2, 4-2 ret.
   W Roger Federer 6-3, 6-3

   Serve & volley: Djokovic 1/1, Federer 1/2
