Djokovic made far more errors than normal. He was tired from the epic semifinal.

I don't think this would happen again if they were both ready and it wasn't that hot.



Djokovic played well, virtually every point was an epic rally. Murray was better and fitter today, thus dealing with the heat better.

Not to take anything away from Murray and his accomplishment, but the when you have the crowd behind you to the extent that he had here, you get a massive energy boost. Plus I think he just wanted it a LOT more than Djokovic today...for obvious reasons.

These 2 are great friends and have known each other since childood so a rivalry between the two isn't as interesting like Nadal and Ferderer or even Agassi and Sampras, who generally don't like each other much.
