00:00...that he gets with that particular stroke.
00:04Wow, that's a shot that's worked so very well this week against Tommy Haas.
00:09Hoping he feels better tomorrow.
00:19I'm just getting back to the point we're talking about, Federer's four-hand header was alluding to.
00:23Excellent shot from Djokovic to stay in the game.
00:38I think it's just quite a piece of the line.
00:41Yeah, Djokovic was looking for a call.
00:47Wow, where did that come from?
00:51The pace he gets on this volley.
01:15And Federer breaks.
01:16Out and Federer covered him with no problem.
01:27And he's putting on a clinic.
01:30The best level we've seen from Federer I think was more impressive if he keeps this up here.
01:39But Djokovic is so good.
01:41Not in my house.
01:47Oh, this is astonishing.
01:50Boom, boom back.
01:51A little bit of S and V to close out the third game.
02:05To me about Federer, that literally nice passing shot.
02:10Literally 15 minutes before this match started, Federer was with his little girls.
02:14He's 30.
02:26Federer is in fine form.
02:29Oh yes, that's what I mean, defense to offense.
02:39It's a big game, this one.
02:40It's used to.
02:42That doesn't mean he's going to let Djokovic back.
02:46How good is that serve?
02:49First serve percentage.
02:53That is world class.
02:55There it is again.
03:09Backhand up the line.
03:10It's worked so well for Orchard this week.
03:13Game.
03:15But all the game planning they've done could not make up for how well Federer is playing in this opening set.
03:22And Roger Federer wraps up the opening set just north of a half hour.
03:34An impressive start in Federer's pursuit of his fifth title here.
03:39He wins at 6-3.
03:40Looking forward today for Orchard.
03:4315 miles.
03:45Thanks to Jason Goodon who's been there working hard.
03:48His backhand.
03:49Hopped on about that throughout the first set.
03:51That's a nice.
03:57I want to see him split the court a little bit better.
03:59For him.
04:05Again, Federer taking control.
04:09Still game point for Djokovic, but...
04:11Watch this rally on forward.
04:12I mean, this is Federer in full flow.
04:22Yeah, it's fun to watch, isn't it?
04:24Each了.
04:34Including the decision to bring Stefan Edberg in or at least part ways with Paul Anacombe.
04:39Brains trust of trying to get him better.
04:44And unfortunately these things take time.
04:45They don't just happen overnight.
04:47Give the oncoming return.
05:14Nice.
05:17Say that.
05:18No.
05:22If you can make a million dollars winning in two sets, why make a million?
05:28Television.
05:29No.
05:30No.
05:31No.
05:32No.
05:33No.
05:34No.
05:35No.
05:36No.
05:37No.
05:38No.
05:39No.
05:40No.
05:41No.
05:42No.
05:43No.
05:44No.
05:45No.
05:46No.
05:47No.
05:48No.
05:49No.
05:50No.
05:51No.
05:52No.
05:53No.
05:54No.
05:55No.
05:56No.
05:57No.
05:58No.
05:59No.
06:00No.
06:01No.
06:02No.
06:03No.
06:04No.
06:05No.
06:06No.
06:07No.
06:08No.
06:09That is absolutely jaw-dropping stuff from Federer.
06:24And you're right, Djokovic has picked up his ladder here in the second set.
06:28And Djokovic will have the first chance to break for either man here in the second set.
06:53It's tough.
06:54And Djokovic breaks.
07:07And an excellent serve delivers his first set point.
07:11We'll play a final set to determine our champion.
07:26Awesome.
07:33Nice.
07:36Of course it is to set on that occasion.
07:45Federer getting Djokovic wrong for him a little bit, tweaked Djokovic's left leg.
07:50Whoa!
07:51Opening set of Federer had a shot like that and hit it in the net.
08:06One, two, three.
08:08No game nine to play.
08:10Wow!
08:12That is right at the middle!
08:13middle.
08:13What these are just world class rounds.
08:43That's why he was so good on that instant
08:58Thanks to our partner
09:02Wow, come on
09:10Even Federer had a look of disbelief
09:16Second serve at break point
09:20That's too good
09:23That's the one I like
09:40Federer is playing on a clay court all of a sudden with those slides
09:54The gap was open break point
10:08He's got it
10:12So Djokovic has grabbed control of the final set
10:22Federer swats that away trying to get back in this right away
10:3215-0
10:3830-15
10:45Djokovic is going to stay number two no matter what
10:49What a volley
10:54Artistry
11:0030-0
11:02Well, this is a Federer special
11:04Exquisite touch
11:18Stat lined up like that
11:22Now that was about as perfect a second serve as you can hit
11:28But the problem for Federer is he's got to find a way to break
11:42It's a no either
11:46Of course
11:47The British rivalry so far in the open era is actually on 39 occasions
11:53Of course in the order it was Lyndon McEnroe then Connors Lyndon
11:5930-0
12:29Oh, Iveritz at the moment is Novak, piled in with that backhand.
12:43The center pass to create the space and then the one that he knows best has finally come
12:55good.
12:56I just couldn't hear how bad he still wants this.
13:21It all comes down to the next game.
13:26Djokovic will serve for the title here in Indian Wells.
13:28And Federer has triple break point.
13:35And Federer has triple break point.
13:42And Federer has triple break point.
13:49Djokovic saves one.
13:56Djokovic saves one.
14:03Djokovic has a double break point.
14:11Djokovic has a triple break point.
14:15Djokovic's a double break.
14:16Djokovic has a triple break.
14:21It's such an intelligent pass, it wasn't about the pace, it was about...
14:41Federer has taken 14 of the last 15 points, breaking serve, and now it's Djokovic feeling the pressure of having to hold to stay alive this time instead of for the match.
15:01Here we go. The last time these two play in a final set tiebreak.
15:08Can it remain solid?
15:17It's been a good start for Djokovic.
15:19He got away with one there, Sam.
15:21I have to say Federer is in trouble now.
15:36It has not been a good tiebreak for Roger Federer.
15:516-3, Djokovic.
16:01No, it's a set of marks, Djokovic.
16:04No, that Djokovic is the champion of the BNP Paribas Open.
16:20A final set tiebreak between these heavyweights, and it's Djokovic who wins his third title here, his 17th ATP Masters 1000 title, and his maiden title of 2014.
16:39Roger Federer.
16:42Roger Federer.
16:46Roger Federer.
16:53.
17:07Thank you very much, what a week it's been, more than a week, we've been here in the desert, beautiful Indian Wells, and we always have a great time here, I think I can speak on behalf of all the players, maybe Novak has a different experience, but I love it here, and I know he does too, but I had a great time here also as a family, and I can't thank all the people enough for making it.
17:37Our stay here, so very special again this year, so thank you.
17:47Personally I'm very happy, I think I'm playing great tennis right now, so I'm really enjoying myself at the moment.
17:58Of course I would have liked to win a few more points at the end, but Novak made it tough, and congratulations on a great tournament and a great finals.
18:07Of course I think the expansion here at this tournament is the one thing next to the forehands and backhands we've been speaking about the most, and of course I've been in the game for 15 years, and I've seen the game grow, and it's great to have people like Larry Ellison and others who make these dreams possible, so thank you so much for investing and being part of this great sport.
18:35Of course there's many people to thank, who let us live our dream as tennis players every single day, the organization, the sponsors, ball boys, ball kids, the cameramans, you guys put great footage around the world, so people can see it as well, not just here live in the stadiums.
19:03But of course you people, you make it so very nice for us to come and play and battle and try hard, and thanks for making it beautiful for us to play, and I hope I can come back next year and enjoy it again, so I'll see you then. Thank you very much, bye-bye.
