Overview
- Novak Djokovic beat Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 to move into the Wimbledon third round in a match widely described as a 'vintage' performance.
- Tournament reports highlighted dominant numbers, saying Djokovic won a very high share of points on his first serve, saved all five break points he faced, hit 33 winners and made just seven unforced errors.
- Commentators praised his serving, movement and clean play, and Djokovic said he felt great on court and that 'age is just a number,' adding a lighthearted moment when he playfully feigned injury to a ball girl and later apologised.
- He is scheduled to face Arthur Rinderknech for a place in the tournament's second week, a win that would extend his run toward the later rounds.
- At 39, Djokovic’s form keeps him firmly in the conversation for a record 25th major and an eighth Wimbledon title, a prospect that reshapes expectations for rivals in his half of the draw.
