Too much Novak Djokovic for Flavio Cobolli in Shanghai
Novak Djokovic-Flavio Cobolli 6-1 6-2
Nothing to do for Flavio Cobolli in the round of 16 of the Shanghai Masters 1000. The Roman tennis player, in fact, è was forced to surrender to one of the best seasonal versions of Novak Djokovic, who imposed himself with a peremptory 6-1 6-2 after only one hour of play.
Djokovic gets off to a strong start, Cobolli a bit contracted: the Serb snatches the serve from the Italian in the second game and confirms the lead (3-0). The Roman manages to break free in the fourth game (1-3) but then Nole threads three more consecutive games and makes the first partial his own 6-1.
In the second set the balance holds until 2-2: from here new partial of four consecutive games of the 24-time Slam champion, who closes for 6-2 at the first useful match point, at the end of a truly capital performance.
The Serbian star thus advances to the round of 16 of the 'Rolex Shanghai Masters', while Cobolli must say goodbye to the Chinese 1000: the Italian will be back on court next week at the Almaty ATP 250.
