Novak Djokovic, lucky to play at Wimbledon
The Serbian tennis player after defeating Argentina's Cachin acknowledged that "there is no place more special than Wimbledon in terms of history and tradition." "I have said it many times throughout my career. Coming to Wimbledon was always the dream, to be able to win it. A childhood dream that came true in 2011. Every year I come back I relive those memories and, somehow, I get in touch with that child I dreamed of in Serbia, he added
He also recognized his opponent Pedro Cachin for his match: "I think Pedro deserves a big applause for his performance. Especially in the third set, he hit the ball really well. He served with great precision and it wasn't easy to break his serve. We were very evenly matched until the tiebreak, and I started a little better in that tiebreak. I think that helped me to win it and close the match".

The 29-year-old Australian tennis player, currently ranked 70th in the world. In May he won the Gwangju challenger in South Korea. In the last Grand Slam, the Roland Garros, he was defeated after losing to his compatriot Purcell.

At Wimbledon he needed five sets to defeat the American Nakashima in the first round after coming from behind to lose the first two sets.

A month later he returned to the courts in his first clay court tournament, where he lost in the round of 16 to Lorenzo Musetti. In the ATP of Banja Luka he was defeated in the round of 16 by his compatriot Lajovic. Due to shoulder discomfort, he missed the Madrid Masters 1000. In Rome, where he was defending his title, he reached the quarterfinals where he was defeated by Rune. At Roland Garros he was proclaimed champion to lift his 23rd Grand Slam.
