Too many unforced errors and just not playing and not feeling great in the first couple of sets. But credit to him for playing well in the important moments."

Djokovic was able to rally back in the 3rd and he explained it ba saying:

“After I lost the second set and went out to change and came back on the court, I just felt different. I was a different player.”
