Djokovic records 100th Wimbledon win

Seven-time champion Novak Djokovic said he is "blessed" to have sealed his 100th victory at Wimbledon with a statement third-round win over compatriot Miomir Kecmanovic last Saturday.

Serb Djokovic was in no mood to delay his near-fated century at the All England Club and secured the 6-3 6-0 6-4 victory in just one hour and 50 minutes.

It is a feat achieved in singles only by nine-time women's winner Martina Navratilova and eight-time champion Roger Federer, who holds the men's record with 105.

If Djokovic wins the trophy at the end of the fortnight, he will still be one shy of Federer's mark.

But it would land him an even bigger accomplishment — the record 25th Grand Slam title he has been chasing since last winning a major at the 2023 US Open.

"Wimbledon is a favourite and a dream tournament of not just myself but the majority of players," he said.

"Growing up, most kids dream of winning here and I've been blessed to do that many times here. Any history I make in my favourite tournament... I'm blessed."

Djokovic celebrated the milestone by performing a 'pumping' dance which has become a tradition between him and his children after each win this tournament.
