Novak Djokovic Opens up on Mental Health Following Alexander Zverev’s Heartbreaking Comments After Wimbledon Exit

Zverev entered Wimbledon as the third seed, making his first-round exit one of the tournament’s biggest surprises. Despite the tough loss, he continues to receive encouragement from the tennis community during this difficult time.

Novak Djokovic advances at Wimbledon

Fifth seed Novak Djokovic secured a dominant win on Thursday at Wimbledon, defeating Britain’s Daniel Evans 6-3, 6-2, 6-0. This was their first meeting since Evans shocked Djokovic in Monte-Carlo back in 2021. The seven-time champion showed no signs of trouble this time around.

Djokovic was sharp from start to finish, controlling the match in just under two hours. He dropped only nine points on serve and handled Evans’ tricky slice with ease. The result evens their head-to-head record and adds another strong performance to Djokovic’s Wimbledon legacy.

With this victory on Centre Court, Djokovic set a new record for most third-round appearances (19) at Wimbledon in the Open Era, surpassing Roger Federer. The 38-year-old now holds a remarkable 99 wins and just 12 losses at the All England Club.

Looking ahead, Djokovic will face countryman Miomir Kecmanovic for a spot in the fourth round. Kecmanovic advanced after coming from behind to beat Jesper de Jong in four sets. It will be an all-Serbian clash with history on the line.

Boris Becker won 71 matches at Wimbledon and reached seven finals, winning three titles. Jimmy Connors leads the group just behind Federer and Djokovic, with 84 victories and two titles across 20 appearances.

Djokovic now holds a 99-12 Wimbledon record, placing him second all-time in match wins at the tournament. He has claimed seven titles and reached three more finals since his debut in 2005. Federer tops the list with a 105-14 record, earned across 22 appearances and highlighted by a record eight Wimbledon titles.
