Novak Djokovic has booked his place in round three of Wimbledon following a straight forward win over Thanasi Kokkinakis.
Djokovic swept aside his opponent taking the match in straight sets 6-1 6-4 6-2.
The defending champion wasted little time getting going and broke his opponent in the second game before racing away with the first set in comfortable fashion inside half an hour.
Kokkinakis put up more resistance in the second set but was again made to rue an early break as Djokovic kept him at arms’ length.
It didn’t all go the Serb’s way as Kokkinakis stood firm in game nine, eventually converting his fourth game point forcing Djokovic to serve out the set.
The number one seed broke again in the first game of set three and looked set for victory after a Kokkinakis backhand into the net for 4-1.
Djokovic then held to move within a game of victory but Kokkinakis claimed some form of consolation to force his opponent to serve for the victory.
Djokovic duly obliged, albeit having to save a late break point, and faces now faces compatriot Miormir Kecmanoivic in round four.
