Wimbledon: Two-time defending champion Djokovic gets off to a good start
Novak Djokovic wins Wimbledon first round
No surprise! Novak Djokovic has won the opening match of the men’s event at the 134th edition of Wimbledon. The Serbian defeated the 19 year old British player Jack Draper. He won in four sets (4-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-2). All in 2 hours.
However, things did not go smoothly for Djokovic. He was surprised from the start by Jack Draper, who dictated to the Serb in the first set. It was in the second set that Djoko played at his best. Experienced and skillful with his racket, he physically suffocated the British player with his violent backhands.
In familiar territory, two-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic is off to a good start. He will face the winner of the match between South African Kevin Anderson and Barrios Vera in the second round
