Well, that was easy.

After dropping the first two games of his match against Stan Wawrinka, Novak Djokovic turned on the afterburners, easily winning his second match at the 2014 ATP World Tour Finals, 6-3, 6-0.   

But hey, at least the match started competitively before Djokovic demolished Wawrinka, as Russell Fuller of the BBC wryly tweeted:



Perhaps Djokovic's dominance should be unexpected at this point. After all, the victory was also the 29th consecutive indoor win for the World No. 1, a truly remarkable run of form. 

Wawrinka certainly knew he was going to have a battle on his hands. Coming into the match, he noted, "I’ll have to play my best tennis, Novak is playing really well," per Nick Ames of The Guardian.

Boy, was that an understatement.

Djokovic essentially dominated every facet of this match. He won 71 percent of his first-service points, saved two of the three break points Wawrinka managed to earn, capitalized on five of the nine break points he created against Wawrinka and pounced on his opponent's second-service points, winning 74 percent of them.



In other words, there was nowhere for Wawrinka to run, and there was certainly nowhere for him to hide.

“I played a great match, no question about it," Djokovic said, per Ames. "The opening two or three games were quite long and he started really well, but I managed to get back into the first set. He made a few unforced errors and it wasn’t his day, he wasn’t close to his best. But I executed what I wanted to do very well.”

Because Tomas Berdych already has a win at this tournament, Djokovic's triumph technically didn't qualify him for the final four at the Finals. However, given his blistering form of late, it's hard to imagine the Serbian failing to triumph against Berdych.

A win...
