Stirring echoes of his win over Roger Federer at the US Open a few years ago, Novak Djokovic raced into the Wimbledon quarterfinals thanks to this screaming winner off a Jo-Wilfried Tsonga serve.

The shot came as Tsonga was serving down two sets and 5-6 in the third set breaker. The return kissed the line and the match was over for the Serb 6-3, 6-4, 7-6(5). Or was it? After the handshake the chair umpire notified the players the shot was actually called out, however Hawk-Eye confirmed the ball was in and the match was Djokovic’s.

“We both served very well in the tiebreak and the only opportunity I had was on second serve on 6-5, and I used it. I went for the shot,” Djokovic said.


Djokovic, who won Wimbledon in 2011, will next meet the Goran Ivanisevic-coached Marin Cilic on Wednesday in the quarterfinals.

I didnt really like the way he celebrated after such a magnificent return…


jane Says:

weird ending. nole hit that great shot but it was called out and he had to challenge his own shot. no wonder he was relieved to win at at 6-5 in the tiebreak. i am sure he knew that if it went to a 4th set it could get complicated. aide!

peep Says:

jo always celebrates in that fashion. nothing wrong with it.


Michael Says:

Novak has all the right to celebrate wildly after he hit such an exquisite shot. As a player, he just burst out with his emotions on hitting such kind of winners which is normal for any player. Infact it was for such fun they play the game and they derive tremendous satisfaction out of it when all their hard work brings the kind of results they hope for. It all ends in elated and erupted celebrations and I like that aggressive Novak who screams and fist pumps after executing such excellent shots. It shows his passion for the sport.


Patson Says:

Nole is in FINE form ! Simply the best.


madmax Says:
