Wimbledon crown adds cheer for Novak Djokovic after disappointing season

Novak Djokovic's win comes amidst a disappointing season Novak Djokovic had a poor season by his own lofty standards prior to Wimbledon, with just the sole win at the Italian Open to show for his efforts. While it seemed that the former World No. 1 would carry his winning momentum into the French Open, a surprise loss against Rafael Nadal - who had announced that he was in serious pain a day prior to the contest - cut short his impressive run. Kyrgios: "We’ll never see a competitor like Rafa again. You’ll never see someone wield a racquet like Roger so effortlessly. You’ll never probably see anyone who just plays the game so good as a winner than Djokovic. It's going to be a sad day when they retire." Kyrgios: "We’ll never see a competitor like Rafa again. You’ll never see someone wield a racquet like Roger so effortlessly. You’ll never probably see anyone who just plays the game so good as a winner than Djokovic. It's going to be a sad day when they retire." The 35-year-old, who did not play any tour-level preparatory tournaments ahead of Wimbledon, was stretched by Jannik Sinner in the quarterfinals before prevailing in five sets. The Serb then thwarted an early challenge from Cameron Norrie in the semifinals to come through in four sets and set up a title clash with Kyrgios, who advanced to the final following Nadal's injury-induced withdrawal. The much-needed title win for the Serb comes as he is set to miss the upcoming US Open and a second successive Australian Open on account of not being vaccinated. Novak Djokovic made his first appearance at Wimbledon in 2005 and has won seven of the eight finals he has been a part of. His only loss came against in the 2013 final. The former World No. 1 is now just one title short of Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon crowns. Poll : Who will win the 2022 ATP finals?
