Novak Djokovic has achieved a historic milestone, recording his 100th victory at Wimbledon with a convincing third-round win over compatriot Miomir Kecmanovic. The seven-time champion’s impressive performance earned him praise from fans and pundits alike.
Djokovic’s dominant display came in just one hour and 50 minutes, securing a 6-3, 6-0, 6-4 victory that saw him break records set by Martina Navratilova and Roger Federer. If he wins the championship, Djokovic will be just shy of their record 105 victories.
Wimbledon holds a special place in Djokovic’s heart, describing it as his “favourite tournament”. He celebrated his milestone win with a ‘pumping’ dance, which has become a tradition after each victory at the All England Club. The 38-year-old will face Australian Alex de Minaur in the fourth round.
Djokovic’s serve proved to be the key to his success, facing just one break point throughout the match. His athleticism and movement on court left fans in awe, as evidenced by a lengthy point that ended with Djokovic delivering a brilliant backhand winner while off balance.
The Serbian player was almost flawless, losing only one break of serve throughout the match. However, he did falter slightly when trying to serve out the win, but recovered quickly and sealed the victory.
Djokovic’s next challenge will be against 11th seed Alex de Minaur in the fourth round. If he continues his current form, a semi-final meeting with Italian top seed Jannik Sinner is likely. With a record 25 Grand Slam titles within his grasp, Djokovic remains one step away from achieving this historic feat.
