Djokovic Wins 4th Wimbledon in a Row, 21st Grand Slam

Serbian Novak Djokovic has won the 2022 Wimbledon final against larger than life character Nick Kyrgios.

Despite losing the first set, Djokovic went on to come back and win the final in tennis’ most historic tournament three sets to one.

It certainly was an entertaining final, with drama from both ends of the court, but probably more so Kyrgios, as we’ve come to expect this summer.

As for Djokovic, the match against Kyrgios was ironically a tale of the Serb’s Wimbledon tournament as a whole.

The Serbian’s journey started in late June when he won his first-round showdown with Kwon Soon-woo 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.

His second-round clash against Thanasi Kokkinakis was a lot more plain sailing when he won in straight sets to progress through to the next round.

Against Miomir Kecmanovic, it was arguably one of Djokovic’s most dominant performances at this year’s competition, winning 6-0, 6-3, 6-4.

Heading into the Round of 16, the number one ranked player was starting to gain a lot of momentum as the later rounds were just around the corner.

Djokovic would go on to beat Tim van Rijthoven, but suffered a little setback in the second set. With that being said, it didn’t appear to phase him for the rest of the match.

However, the quarter-final outing against 10th-ranked Jannik Sinner was arguably his toughest test yet. He would come back from two sets down to win 5-7, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.

It is fair to say that he showed great adversity in the showdown with the Italian.

In the semi-final, Djokovic would face home favourite Cameron Norrie for a chance to face Kyrgios in the final, who progressed after Rafael Nadal pulled out of the pair’s semi-final outing.

After losing the first set, Djokovic came back in some style to defeat the Brit 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4.

Kyrgios did cause Djokovic a lot of problems throughout the match. His serve proved to be a real problem for the Serb.

Even though Kyrgios had his moments, Djokovic went on to show his class in the end when it really mattered.

Victory over the Aussie means that Djokovic has now won four Wimbledon titles in a row and his seventh overall.

As of right now, Roger Federer has won the most Wimbledon titles with eight.

With 21 Grand Slam titles to his name, Djokovic has consistently shown why he is one of the greatest players of all time.
