Dan Evans could have been a dangerous rival for Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon, because the British veteran has a game very suitable for this surface and the former world No. 1 had not been so brilliant in his first match in London, in which he lost a set to French ace Alexandre Muller.

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.

On Tuesday, Novak Djokovic opened his Wimbledon campaign with a 6-1, 6-7, 6-2, 6-2 win over Alexandre Muller. While the scoreline suggests a clear advantage for the Serbian star, the World No. 6 struggled at times during the match, which affected his overall performance.
