dear mehdi
you are 100 percent right. you just hit the nail on the head.that was the starting point of novak's downfall and reinforced by his loss at melbourne.novak had set the musketeer's cup as his priority the previous season and he had set wimbledon his goal at 2011 and had won it (as he himself called as the most prestigious tournament).and that was a very tough loss a energy"-sapping defeat.esp considering that he had the upperhand in that final set,leading 4-2 and at the deuce made that childlish error and touched the net while hitting a volley.
and even his brilliant performance at the tail end of last season didnt lift his morale
ironically rafa had the same scenario against novak leading 4-2 at aussie open in the final set and 30-15 ,here hit a very basic backhand to the net .hile he had rushed foeward to finish the rally and novak had already given up on that point.and this proved costly.instead of 40-15 it shifted to 30 on (thats why they say every point in tennis is worth two points)changing the momentum ,rafa got broken and novak came back.coincidentally novak had the upper hand in that match at the 4th set and rafa had his chances at roland garros in the fourth set(serving at 6-5 30-15)
and that loss was rafa's 3rd consecutive GS loss to novak and the seventh back to back final.so apparently more tragic but because mentally he is one of the best athletes in the world he bounced back.
novak seemed to immitate these guys for their consistency and now is showing his true colors!(he was very criticized earlier in his career for trying to imitate the other player's styles.
