Novak Djokovic created a slice of history as he marched into the third round at Wimbledon after cruising to a comfortable win over Britain’s Dan Evans.

While he launched his Wimbledon campaign with a straight-sets win over countryman Jay Clarke, his schedule will get no easier in the second round as he meets the 24-time Grand Slam champion Djokovic, who is in the hunt for his eighth title in SW19.

Novak Djokovic swatted aside the challenge of brave Brit Dan Evans, to keep alive his dream of winning a 25th Grand Slam title. Djokovic rolled back the clock with some vintage tennis in a 6-3, 6-2, 6-0 straight sets win on Centre Court, booking his place in the Wimbledon third round.
