Novak Djokovic returns to the grass this afternoon in an exhibition match at the Hurlingham Club in the Giorgio Armani Tennis Classic.
The six-time Wimbledon champion got his preparations for the All England Club up and running with a commanding 6-2 6-1 against Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime on Tuesday.
The match was Djokovic’s first competitive outing since losing an epic French Open quarter-final to Rafael Nadal last month and comes ahead of the start of the Championships on Monday 27 June.
Djokovic will be determined to defend his Wimbledon title after going three grand slams without a victory, following defeat to Daniil Medvedev at the US Open, the visa saga at the Australian Open, and his defeat to Nadal at the French.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of his match this afternoon.
