   Points won by each set: | 27-20, 36-27 |
   Points won directly behind the serve:
   43 % Lendl – 23 of 53
   40 % Ivanisevic – 23 of 57

   [6] Ivanisevic was serving better than anyone else in 1992, he came to Tokyo from Sydney where he easily won five matches, he notched another two easy wins in Japan, so it was quite surprising that Lendl [9] created so many break point chances within two sets on carpet (Sydney held on hard indoors). The 11 years older Czech (playing his first season as an US citizen) knew how to read Ivanisevic’s serve, it was their sixth and last meeting, the H2H ended with Lendl’s 5-1 advantage, and only once in those five wins a deciding set was required.
