The rain started flushed less than two hours before the scheduled match. Three and a half hours later after not seeing any signs of abating, the committee decided to postpone the final day on Monday or Tuesday when Indonesia.
The delay is certainly a blessing for Djokovic. He will get an extra day to rest. Something that really he needed following a strict semifinalnya battle against Roger Federer.
Djokovic admitted that his lack of rest. After the fight against Federer, he could not sleep.
"I was watching golf (on television) as he tries to sleep but could not. Pity the match to be postponed. I will rest as much and hopefully can recover. I am sure will be fit to perform optimally," Djokovic said.
More than 20 thousand spectators who had bought tickets for the final had to go back tomorrow. But it seems not many people mind doing it.
