LONDON: For a little over two hours Novak Djokovic, going for an eighth title on Church Road, was forced to listen to the crowd in the Wimbledon fourth-found clash against Dane Holger Rune.
The cadence was gnawing. The 24-time major winner wasn't happy. Perhaps it was the 'Ruuuu' misconstrued as 'boooo', or it might've been the salt in the air. There was really no telling, but Djokovic was in no mood to listen. He had heard too much for too long. That the 37-year-old won in straight sets was incidental.
