In a Grand Slam quarterfinal, Novak Djokovic was up 4-1 in the 4th set and had multiple break points for 5-1. He did not convert. He lost the set 13-11 in tiebreaker to the 72nd-ranked player in the world. File this under: Champions who lost their nerve.
• Not unpredictably—in fact, downright predictably—Djokovic’s quarterfinal defeat to Marco Cecchinato triggered quite of bit of chatter among you guys.
