Wimbledon 2023: Djokovic makes winning start, equals Nadal's Grand Slam feat; Coco Gauf suffers shock exit

India TV News  

2 seed and seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic started his 2023 campaign with a rather mature win against Argentina's Pedro Cachin after a delayed start. The dark clouds and a shower delayed the start of Djokovic's Round 1 game at SW19, which led to the Serbian drying the court with his own towel as Djokovic interacted with fans and looked in a good mood even though the delay lasted almost 90 minutes but as soon as the game started he meant business. Djokovic beat Cachin 6-3, 6-3, 7-6 in a solid performance as he equalled Rafael Nadal's iconic Grand Slam feat. 4 Coco Gauff suffered a surprising first-round exit at Wimbledon 2023, four years after she announced herself to the world by beating Venus Williams at the Centre Court.
