Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon 2009
Djokovic needs 4 sets in his first encounter at Wimbledon 2009
The 2009 Wimbledon Championship has just started. The 3rd Grand Slam of the season will have a new winner this year as last year’s Champion and World No 1, Rafa Nadal has retired from playing on the stylish English grass courts. The Spaniard suffers from knee problems and needs a serious recovery.
Novak Djokovic has started his Wimbledon campaign a little bit hesitant. The Serbian player lost the first set of his encounter against the Frenchman, Julien Benneteau. Benneteau won the tiebreak of the first set and seemed ready to produce the upset.
Djokovic recovered in the right moment and won the second set tiebreak to avoid a potential 5 set encounter. The Serbian won eventually in 4 sets as Benneteau failed to keep up the pace in sets number 3 and 4.
Novak needs a good tournament in England especially after the disappointing Roland Garros 3rd round exit. Watch Wimbledon live on your computer and see Djokovic live in action.
