Djok steps on the Gassi COACH ANDRE IS THE MAN TO REBUILD NOVAK

TONY STENSON to win the match, he wants to win the tournament. He looks back to his best.” And Agassi said: “If I can help Novak, I will. It’s pretty much as simple as that. In raising children, you teach them not to need you. That’s the objective.” The match was not without controversy with Djokovic challenging umpire Jake Garner over two false calls in the first 10 minutes and saying, “Get a grip”. It obviously rattled him and Gulbis made f i rst his breakthrough but he soon corrected the tilt and went on to win the first set in 43 minutes. Gulbis, the son of millionaire businessman and an actress mother, flies in private jets around the world. Sadly, Gulbis has made it known he does not take his job seriously, while Djokovic certainly does. He is, however, to be applauded for reaching Wimbledon through the qualifiers, sweeping away Juan Martin del Potro in the second round and making a decent fist of a match in which he looked like being overwhelmed. But after a bright start, laughter was replaced by tears. He hit a catalogue of double faults, unforced errors and called for medical treatment on his back when two sets down. Overall, Gulbis – who had to change a racket after breaking a string returning one of Djokovic’s serves – did not have a Plan B while the super Serb made him suffer with his A-game. It seems like Djokovic is going to be a very tough act to beat going into the second week.
