BREAKING: Novak Djokovic continued his quest for a fourth-straight Wimbledon title with a 2-6 6-3 6-2 6-4 semi-final victory over Great Britain’s No.1 Cameron Norrie.
Djokovic appeared to receive a mixed reception from the crowd after knocking out home favourite Norrie, with some boos audible, but the Serbian was full of praise for the British star in his post-match interview, which got plenty of cheers.
‘I didn’t start off well,’ Djokovic said. ‘He was the better player in the first set. Semi-finals of a Grand Slam, I’ve had many in the past but it’s never easy.‘Cameron didn’t have much to lose – he was playing the tournament of his life and playing at home. I wish him all the best, he’s a great player and I have a lot of respect for him.
‘It was very hot today – the hottest day of the Championships so far. I was a bit tighter at the beginning of the match and not swinging through the ball as smoothly as you would like.
