Djokovic will serve first on Centre!

Djokovic 1-0 Goffin*

A hold for the number 1 seed, but no cakewalk as Goffin pushes the Serb to deuce. 

He emerges unscathed though, over to Goffin.

*Djokovic 1-1 Goffin

Goffin holds to 15, and looks comfortable early on.

1562761200

*Djokovic 1-1 Goffin (40-40)

Goffin stretches the game to deuce once again, with a big forehand inside-out winner!

He's looking to take the initiative so far is the Belgian...

*Djokovic 1-1 Goffin (40-40)

BREAK POINT SAVED!

Djokovic saves an early break point with a forehand which is just inside the line. Back to deuce...

*Djokovic 1-1 Goffin (40-40)

ANOTHER BREAK POINT SAVED!

Goffin is on the charge when the score is deuce, but can't find any momentum at advantage - Djokovic this time saving break point no. 2 with a big serve down the T.

Djokovic 2-1 Goffin*

Goffin nets two groundstrokes, one on the forehand side and one on the backhand side, and Djokovic clings onto his own serve.

Early signs are promising for the world number 23. 

Kieran Jackson10 July 2019 13:24

*Djokovic 2-2 Goffin

Goffin holds convincingly to love, as Djokovic's backhand goes astray.

Kieran Jackson10 July 2019 13:30
1562761908

Djokovic 3-2 Goffin*

Huge chance for Goffin at 30-30, but he positions himself too close to the net and that's exactly where his volley goes. 

Djokovic finds his serve to hold. 

Kieran Jackson10 July 2019 13:31
1562762357

*Djokovic 3-3 Goffin

Goffin comes through a tricky situation at 30-30, with an ace and a backhand pass. 

Three apiece in the first.
