Last year, under the influence of Covid-19 pandemic, Wimbledon 2020 was canceled. Therefore, in this year's tournament, the defending champion of men's singles is still Novak Djokovic. In the final in 2019, the world's No. 1 player defeated Roger Federer with a score of 3-2. This is also the fifth time he has been crowned in London.
Currently, with Rafael Nadal's decision to withdraw, Federer no longer retains its peak performance while Stefanos Tsitsipas is also eliminated early, Djokovic continues to be considered as the No. 1 candidate for the championship. In the first two rounds, the Serbian star easily surpassed Jack Draper as well as Kevin Anderson, respectively 3-1 and 3-0. Today 2/7, Nole will play in the third round, with Denis Kudla encounter.
Kudla is currently ranked 114th in the ATP rankings. Although the ranking is not high, the American tennis player is playing quite well on the pitch. Before coming to London, England reached the final and quarterfinals in two Challengers in Nottingham. Overcoming 3 qualifying rounds in Wimbledon, Kudla continued to play impressively in the first and second round with victories against the No. 30 Alejandro Davidovich Fokina with Andreas Sepp.
On the other side of the battle line, Djokovic is not inferior when he has high form from the beginning of the season. Of these, the most prominent is the two Grand Slam championships he won, including Australian Open and Roland Garros. Currently, the Serbian star is aiming to win the “Golden Slam” – 4 Grand Slam titles of the year with the Olympic Gold Medal.
