AUSTRALIAN OPEN 2008: Djokovic wins 1st major
Novak DjokovichasdefeatedJo-Wilfried Tsonga 4-6 6-4 6-3 7-6(2) to win his first Grand Slam title, the 2008 Australian Open.
Yes, Nole is for real, period! He had a real fight on his hands, but unlike the Nadal match when everything seemed to go right for JW, last night he had way too many unforced errors to get the win. While JW's ranking rose to #18 via this runner-up performance, he will be providing much nervous apprehension for everyone on the tour when they see his name in their section of the draw.
