The Serbian Novak Djokovic, in search of his 100th title, was beaten 7-6 (7/4), 7-6 (7/4) by the young Czech Jakub Messik in the Masters 1000 final of Miami, Sunday in Florida. Mexik, 54th in the world, won the first title of his career at the age of 19 against the 37 -year -old former number 1 in the world, at the end of a game that began with almost 6 hours late due to the rain. Despite the inexperience, Messik managed to dominate a tight match with a very high level of game against the great Serbian master with 24 Grand Slam titles. “The first of many others,” wrote Mensik in front of the camera after his historic victory, the first of a Czech in a Masters 1000 after that of Tomas Berdych in Paris in 2005. Great hope of tennis, Mensik was not yet born when Djokovic played his first games of the Grand Slam at the beginning of 2005. Despite the defeat, Djokovic, who retired from the semifinals of the semifinals of the Australian Open in January and was Olympic champion in Paris last summer, he showed at the Florida tournament that his level is still such as to be able to aim for the most important titles.
