TRENDING Stories Videos Your Say She appeared to say: Oh my god, as the pair shared the humorous moment.When asked about the joke, he said: I guess these kinds of things surface when you are two sets to love up rather than two sets to love down, but Stefanos [Tsitsipas] went to change and I had some spare time! I don't know if she's still around, but I'm sorry if I scared her! It wasn't that great of a joke, I guess, but it made me a bit more relaxed on the court! I was just having some fun.LATEST SPORTS NEWSEngland come from behind to beat DR Congo and qualify for last 16 as Harry Kane scores braceAlan Shearer makes bold suggestion for England's right-back dilemmaTottenham fork out £100m beating Arsenal and Manchester City to star midfielder's signatureDjokovic beat Tsitsipas convincingly, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, in his second-round contest, as he goes in pursuit of his eighth Wimbledon championship.Speaking on Centre Court after beating the Greek, he said: I like the terminology 'vintage', it is nice because it brings back the best days. Obviously you feel very happy, satisfied and joyful on the court when you are playing this way. Once I got that momentum going two sets to love up, that game when I went 5-2 up was one of the best return games I've played in a while.He continued: I just went for my shots, I was obviously a bit more relaxed, and I felt a bit less tension in my head in terms of overthinking how to anticipate his serve. His serve was really strong and precise for a set and a half, so one break of serve was enough in the first two sets. After that, I started to read his serve a bit better, and he missed quite a few first serves in the third set, which gave me a look in on the second serve.It was nice to be playing another indoor Wimbledon match, I guess.
