<h2><strong>Djokovic continues remarkable run</strong></h2>

<p>Coming into the match with an unbeaten run of 30 matches, Novak had a tough task of facing Argentina’s Etcheverry who had outclassed former Wimbledon champion&nbsp;Andy Murray in the first round. Djokovic though picked his moments in the match and capitalised on the opportunities provided to snap the opening set. He had a first serve percentage of 86 which highlighted his dominance. He also won 60 percent of points on the second serve in the match.</p>
