Novak Djokovic is back on Centre Court today, taking on Roman Safiullin at Wimbledon.
The world no8 has seen off China's plucky Yibing Wu and then former world No3 Stefanos Tsitsipas, before recovering from a wobble to see off Arthur Rinderknech in four sets.
The 39-year-old, who is hunting an eighth Wimbledon crown, has admitted his SW19 form has had its up and downs as he looks to win a first major since the 2023 US Open.
World No132 Safiullin far outperformed his ranking to swat the highly rated Joao Fonseca aside in straight sets to set up this showdown with Djokovic.
