With a little scare, but Novak Djokovic is already in the second round of Wimbledon. The Serbian player faced some difficult moments against Muller after a tough second set, where he had 11 break point opportunities but failed to convert any of them. This led to him losing the set and prolonging the match for over an hour, which could have ended much sooner.

In the end, it was nearly three and a half hours of play for Novak, who even experienced some minor physical issues, feeling stomach problems. The Serbian player needed the presence of the doctor, but it was not serious, and he managed to close out the match without too much trouble.

About the match

It was great to secure the victory, but I went from feeling my best and playing my best in the first set, to having many break opportunities in the second and experiencing my worst feeling in a long time. I had stomach issues. My energy completely dropped. I tried to survive on the court for a while. After some time, my energy returned, and I started playing from the baseline like in the first set. I give him all the credit for how he played in the second set, but I am happy with how I played when I felt good on the court.

Training with Sabalenka

After the practice, she asked me a couple of things. It always makes me happy to be able to share things with someone. It is something I have done many times with my teammates. What we talked about will stay between us, and I hope it helps her, even if it is something she has heard before. Perhaps hearing it from me will have a different impact on her. I feel flattered that the world number 1 comes to me and asks for advice and questions. It is a privileged position I am in.

His first contact with grass

By my stats, you could say that Wimbledon and the Australian Open are neck and neck as my best tournaments. I always loved playing on grass. It suits my game very well. I am not naturally a serve-volley player, but I like to mix it up. Grass makes a player more aggressive. Whenever I come here, I play my best tennis because I love every day I spend at Wimbledon.
