Wimbledon 2024 LIVE RESULTS: Latest updates from thrilling tournament in SW19

Novak looking relaxed

He’s been playing with his kids, hitting with Nick Kyrgios and catching up with F1 star George Russell.

Oh, and he has a 49th Grand Slam semi-final to come.

Just a regular week for Novak Djokovic.

Djokovic in goooood form

The Serb has not played since Monday night due to Alex De Minaur’s withdrawal with a hip injury.

And that also means the Wimbledon crowd have not seen Djokovic since his spectacular rant on Centre Court after beating Holger Rune comprehensively.

He was annoyed that fans were chanting “Ruuuuune” and believes they were booing him.

And that sparked his incredible monologue, hitting out at the punters.

Djokovic’s miracle comeback

Remember, Djokovic has made a remarkable recovery from knee surgery.

He damaged his knee meniscus against Francisco Cerundolo at the French Open on June 3.

The Serb then pulled out of the tournament before the quarter-final with Casper Ruud and underwent surgery.

But just weeks later, he returned to the practice courts and has come through relatively unscathed at Wimbledon, while wearing a grey brace to support his knee.
