First round – Philipp Kohlschreiber

Djokovic began his campaign with a double fault and a drop of serve, but still secured a straight-sets victory, winning 6-3 7-5 6-3.

Plain sailing for the world number one, who won the opening five games and strolled to a 6-3 6-2 6-2 win in 93 trouble-free minutes.

Djokovic dropped a set for the first time at the Championships but it proved only a minor inconvenience in a 7-5 6-7 (5) 6-1 6-4 win.

The top seed breezed past French rookie Humbert 6-3 6-2 6-3 on Court One to reach the last eight for the 11th time.

For eight games this was a contest, then Djokovic won 10 in row on his way to a 6-4 6-0 6-2 victory and a ninth semi-final.

Spaniard Bautista Agut took the second set, only the second Djokovic dropped all fortnight, but was still taken apart 6-2 4-6 6-3 6-2.
