Djokovic cruises into second week at Wimbledon
World number one believes he's starting to peak at just the right time after cruising into week two at Wimbledon with easy win over Chardy
Novak Djokovic believes he is peaking at just the right time as the world number one prepares to step up his bid for a second Wimbledon title.
Djokovic took the express route into the fourth round as he thrashed French 28th seed Jeremy Chardy 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.
The Serb, who faces German 13th seed Tommy Haas for a place in the quarter-finals, played a flawless first two sets without a single unforced error. He eventually hit 38 winners and served eight aces in one hour and 26 minutes of total dominance.
While several of Djokovic's title rivals, including Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, have fallen foul of the shock defeats and injury withdrawals that have rocked Wimbledon, the 26-year-old has progressed serenely into the last 16 without dropping a set.
"My results are getting better and better, so this is very encouraging going into the second week," he said.
