Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic dismantled Thanasi Kokkinakis 6-1, 6-4, 6-2 to reach the third round at Wimbledon.

He faced a break point after a double-fault in the final game, but three excellent first serves helped him to close out the match. A better service game to open the second set was followed by another break in his next, with Djokovic walloping back another booming first serve to set up an easy volley. The No 23 seed, who is in Cameron Norrie’s quarter, will now face Alexander Bublik for a place in the last 16. The best rally of the match saw the ball skimming the net time and again before a lob from Djokovic left his opponent stranded, setting up a break-point which was converted after another miraculous return. He saved one break point with an ace and thumped down serves at 129mph and then 130mph immediately afterwards, but brilliant returns got both into play and Djokovic went on to take the points and the game for a 5-1 lead. To stand any chance against the No 1 seed Kokkinakis needed to get his big first serve up and running from the start.

Defending champion Novak Djokovic is comfortably through to the third round at Wimbledon after a straight-sets win over Australian Thanasi Kokkinakis.

"Of course, it breaks my heart to see what's happening to him," said Djokovic, explaining that his friendship with the Becker family extended beyond the German's three-year stint at his coach.
