Wimbledon 2023 - LIVE!
Few things are more predictable than Wimbledon rain. The sight of Novak Djokovic winning on Centre Court is another constant. In the first match of this year’s Wimbledon on the main show court, the 15,000 inside were treated to both, in a match that finish almost four hours after the defending champion first walked out onto a court few feel more comfortable on.
The 23-time grand slam champion has not lost on Centre Court for a decade and, at the start of his first-round match against Pedro Cachin boasted more wins at Wimbledon than the rest of the world’s top 20 combined.
Not even a farcical rain break, which lasted over an hour and 20 minutes despite Centre boasting a roof, and saw Djokovic come out with a towel in an attempt to speed up the drying of the court, could curtail him in a 6-3, 6-3, 7-6 victory.
