This is a v good match overall. Even if the scores for sets 1 and 2 may seem titled too much in either direction.
Both these players displayed awesome skills at winning points that are very difficult to win. For example, when Johansson kept returning the smashes with lobs, finally clinching with a backhand or when Bjorkman ran to his limit from net to baseline and hit back a lob from baseline, winning the point. And many more.
Johansson had a great serve and he served 17 aces per match (average) in winning the 2002 Aus Open.
My favourite time of Johansson is in 2004 late and 2005 full when his forehand became more powerful (he built up a lot of power and muscle in the 2003 when he was out the whole season with injury).
Thanks a lot, again for this. Will watch your channel for quality tennis.
