Novak Djokovic produced a Wimbledon masterclass as the history-chasing star raced into the third round on Wednesday, while defending champion Jannik Sinner battled through before French Open champion Mirra Andreeva suffered a shock exit.
Djokovic demolished Stefanos Tsitsipas in a 98-minute rout that served as a statement of intent to Sinner and the rest of his Wimbledon title rivals.
The seven-time Wimbledon champion won 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, hitting 33 winners and making just seven unforced errors.
Djokovic’s latest attempt to make history by winning a record 25th Grand Slam singles title got off to a rocky start as he laboured against unheralded Wu Yibing in the first round on Monday.
Bidding to become the oldest man to win a major title in the Open era, Djokovic — who won the most recent of his Wimbledon crowns in 2022 — has increasingly looked his age over the last two Grand Slams.
The 39-year-old Serb crashed out in the French Open third round, blowing a two-set lead against Joao Fonseca.
