Djokovic 3-1 Monaco
Monaco gets off the mark when Djokovic puts a backhand long. Someone please send me a text on 81111 . Go on. Djokovic 3-0 Monaco
Monaco thumps one big forehand winner down the line which should settle him down a bit, but Djokovic holds to 30. An update from 5live Sports Extra, where Jeff Tarango is lauding the British cabbie's ability to find obscure pubs. 2053: "This year by far has been the most successful for Monaco so far, with three titles and wins over Robredo and Davydenko. But all considered I still predict Djoko wins in straight sets."
From guesswho1356 via text Djokovic 2-0 Monaco
Monaco looks nervous and a couple of errors hand Djokoivc an immediate couple of break point chances. The Serb misses the first with a wild forehand but Monaco helps him out with a double fault on the next point. Shame. Djokovic 1-0 Monaco
Not the easiest of opening games for Djokovic, who lets Monaco back in from 40-15 with a double fault and an unforced error off the ground, but he holds from deuce. Meanwhile, Jeff Tarango on 5live Sports Extra admits he is jealous of Djokovic's thick and lustrous hair. 2040: With a moniker like Juan Monaco it is about time the Argentine made a name for himself, and now's his chance against third seed Novak Djokovic. Monaco, seeded 23rd, is going along very nicely at Flushing Meadows, only dropping two sets so far, but it will be far from easy getting past Djokovic. The 20-year-old Serb holds a 1-0 record over Monaco, having swept him aside in the first round of Wimbledon in 2005. Some facts: Monaco's favourite films are Gladiator and the Lord of the Rings triology. His favourite actors are Robert de Niro and Al Pacino. And Djokovic has recently been featured in the Serbian edition of Playboy - couldn't make out the details in Serbian but he was wearing a James Bond style tux.
