Djokovic wins 3rd Wimbledon title

Defending champion Novak Djokovic won a third Wimbledon title yesterday ruthlessly shattering Roger Federer's bid for a record eighth All England Club triumph, AFP reports from London.
World number one Djokovic won 7-6 (7/1), 6-7 (10/12), 6-4, 6-3. It was a cathartic moment for Djokovic just a month after his heartbreaking French Open final defeat against Stan Wawrinka -- a loss that denied him the only major title he has yet to win.
"It's a big challenge playing against Roger. A lot of players of my generation have looked up to him and followed his lead," said Djokovic who now has the same number of Wimbledon titles as coach Boris Becker who won his first 30 years ago.
