Novak Djokovic: “One of the best matches ever between Roger Federer and me”

Novak Djokovic was proud and happy for his win over Roger Federer at the Rolex Paris Masters on Saturday. The Serb earned his 25th win in 47 matches against the Swiss. “We had epic matches throughout our rivalry but this one definitely ranks as one of the best matches we played,” Djokovic said. “High-quality tennis. Next, to the match, I played against Nadal in semis of Wimbledon, this was definitely the most exciting match I was playing this year, and probably the best quality tennis match that I was part of. So it was kind of also expected, you know, because when I get to play Roger, I know I have to get the best out of myself in order to win. “That´s why our rivalries and matches are so special. I saw his shot and then I just actually met someone from ATP to ask what, you know, because I wasn´t clear on the rule. And everything was clean even though he hit it twice, but it was in one motion so the rule approves it. So yeah, it was quite a shot on a breakpoint. “I´ve been in worse situations in terms of the time between the matches and the way I felt. Of course, it´s been three hours of the really intense match, and so it did take some energy out of me. But I know myself. I know I can recover and I´ll make sure I do.”
