Is this vintage Roger or Roger of the last few years? [View all]

I tend to go with the later. He was on his way to winning in straight sets then lost focus and lost that second set. I hope I'm wrong but this doesn't bode well for the rest of the tournament. Against Tiafor you'd could say he was rusty, but he doesn't seem to have the drive he had most of the year
