• Djokovic wins 14th grand slam title and third in New York
Champions have the rare talent of making their endeavours look easier than mere mortals can imagine, but Novak Djokovic’s straight sets win over Juan Martín del Potro in the US Open final on Sunday night was no mere celebration of the Serbian’s unique gifts.
It took him three and a quarter hours to add a third title to the trophies he lifted here in 2011 and 2015, as well as a second major of the year to go with his return to championship form at Wimbledon, capped off with a rise to No4 in the world.
