Novak Djokovic secured another historic landmark at Wimbledon by overcoming Arthur Rinderknech, advancing to the fourth round. This victory allowed the Serbian star to equal Roger Federer’s record for the highest number of men’s singles match wins at the All England Club. Djokovic, who has claimed 24 major titles, triumphed in a challenging four-set encounter, ending with a score of 7-5, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (7-4). By reaching this stage for the 18th time, he also matched Federer’s record for the most Wimbledon fourth-round appearances.
Although Djokovic dominated the early stages with precise shot-making, the 25th-seeded Rinderknech mounted a spirited comeback to take the third set. The match concluded with both players diving for a final shot in a high-intensity tie-break. Djokovic is now scheduled to play qualifier Roman Safiullin in the next round. Meanwhile, defending champion Jannik Sinner progressed by defeating Jenson Brooksby 6-4, 6-3, 6-4. Despite committing 27 unforced errors, Sinner maintained a dominant serving performance to keep his pursuit of another major title on track.
