Serious question, not putting you on. Why was Hurkacz win impressive? It is not as if Fritz is a very good clay courter.

Fritz is actually playing quite well on clay these days..

Very high quality match between Djokovic and Norrie. At one point early in the second set, Djokovic had 18 winners to one unforced error for the match and was ahead only 6-4, 1-1. He made some mistakes in the tiebreak but won 12 of the first 13 points in the third set.

That level will take him a long way at Roland Garros if he plays the same way.
