Australian Open 2015 Men's Final: Djokovic vs. Murray Stats and Analysis

On Sunday, Novak Djokovic won his fifth Australian Open title by defeating Andy Murray in four sets 7-6 (7-5), 6-7 (4-7), 6-3, 6-0. The match began as if it would be another classic between the two men, but after winning the second-set tiebreaker, Murray seemed to lose energy.

Many of Djokovic's opponents simply have not been able to stand up to the world No. 1's stamina and desire. Djokovic possesses a clutch gene few players have. The win ran Djokovic's record to 180-33 in Grand Slams and 47-22 in finals. Here's a look at championship point:

He's at his best when it matters most. Things were no different in this year's Aussie Open final. Murray couldn't match Djokovic's focus, and it showed in the Scot's service game. 

Ineffective Seconds

Murray struggled with his second serve the entire match. He converted just 34 percent of his second serves overall. Murray had to go to his second serve 32 times in the first two sets. His ineffectiveness in that aspect of the match kept Djokovic from being down two sets to none.

In the first two sets, Djokovic made 32 unforced errors. Murray had every opportunity to take a commanding lead. He squandered his chance, and it would cost him.

In the final two sets, Djokovic was nearly as immaculate as he had been sloppy in the first two frames. He made a combined eight unforced errors to 21 for Murray. The latter got more from his second serve, but it didn't matter, as Djokovic had already locked himself in. 

When it comes to late-match poise, Djokovic has proved to have ice in his veins. It's a trait Murray is still trying to develop.

Quitting

Perhaps he wouldn't have won in a fifth set. Maybe he wouldn't have even taken the fourth set. But Murray's effort in the final frame left a little to be desired. He won just three of his 11 first serves and one of five second serves and committed nine unforced errors.

For the Win tells it like it is:

It looked as if he had accepted defeat and started going through the motions. It was a long and grueling match in which Djokovic proved to be the fittest.
