Judging from the highlights and the match stats Djokovic's returns and backhand is still in good shape while he made 72% of his first serves. Another thing that occured to me this week was his net game and he was 9/12 at the net vs Monfils.
Like Djokovic's game in general, his volleys are underrated. His backhand, movement, and returns are not underrated. Everyone knows those are world class. But I think his net game, serve, forehand, and touch is underrated.

A frustrated Jordan Thompson was left to rue a missed opportunity to build on his strong grasscourt form after crashing out of the first round at Wimbledon.
Two weeks to the day that the Sydneysider lowered the colours of world No.1 Andy Murray at Queen’s Club, Thompson was bundled out by Spanish 25th seed Albert Ramos-Vinolas 6-4 6-4 7-6(4).
After losing the opening set, the 23-year-old led 3-1 in the second after finally breaking the serve of the left-hander from Barcelona.

Daria Gavrilova was in a confessional mood in her post-match press conference as she attempted to process her heart-breaking loss to Petra Martic at Wimbledon.
Daria Gavrilova dubbed herself a Grand Slam choker after adding a despairing first-round Wimbledon defeat to her depressing run at the majors.
Little more than a month after also falling in the opening round at Roland Garros, the new Australian No.1 suffered a gut-wrenching 6-4 2-6 10-8 loss to Croatian qualifier Petra Martic.
Despite her steady rankings rise to 20th in the world, Gavrilova has won just four Grand Slam matches in her past five majors – and only one outside of Australia.
