From the beginning I had a clear gameplan of what I needed to do, staying aggressive and trying to use every short ball to take the initiative in the point. Cobolli was evidently exhausted after last night\u2019s match (against Stan Wawrinka). I think that has taken a toll, physically, on him today,\u201d said Djokovic in the post-game interview.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Despite having played few matches recently, Djokovic expressed satisfaction with his freshness, saying he is ready to compete daily for as long as needed. \u201cI haven\u2019t played too many matches, I think the positive in that is that I\u2019m fresh, so I am happy to play every day (for) as long as it takes,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rain delays in Shanghai postponed Djokovic\u2019s third-round match until Tuesday, but fans were treated to a classic performance under the lights. Djokovic quickly established control, striking 11 winners in the first set, which lasted just 29 minutes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
While Cobolli held serve early in the second set, Djokovic maintained his aggressive play, breaking the Italian in the fifth game to secure his path to victory. This win not only boosts his title ambitions but also enhances his chances of qualifying for the ATP Finals in Turin, where he currently ranks eighth, 220 points behind Andrey Rublev.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
