Novak Djokovic reacts after losing a point to Tomas Machac during his semi-final defeat at the Geneva Open in Switzerland Machac captured the biggest win of his career as a 6-4 0-6 6-1 victory saw him reach his first final at the Geneva Open.
The world number one appeared out of sorts and received a medical timeout at the end of the first set, which he had led 4-1 before fading.Djokovic broke for a 3-1 lead and seemed in command, but his Czech opponent – who had pushed him hard in Dubai last year before losing – stepped on the gas to win five successive games.
The second set was a different story as Djokovic produced several superb forehand winners to level the match in style. Djokovic won the opening game of the deciding set, but it was downhill after that as another surge from Machac proved unstoppable.Readers’ comments: You are personally liable for the content of any comments you upload to this website, so please act responsibly.
