Facing Djokovic

The Brit has faced Djokovic more than once now. They played at last year's Wimbledon with Norrie taking the opening set but then Djokovic stormed back. Talking about how difficult it is to face Djokovic, Norrie said:

"He’s so difficult. You hit a good shot, right on the line, and should be a winner, and he is still bringing it back. So you have another chance and you force it, miss the line by a tiny margin and the point is gone. He pushes you more and more to the point you have to hit it perfectly. It’s tough not to overplay when you feel like you have to be perfect. That messes with your concentration and then he’s on you. It’s tough but that’s the challenge."

They might face each other at this year's Wimbledon though the result is liekly going to be the same. Djokovic is still playing at a really high level and there aren't many players that have ever beaten him on a grass court. Andy Murray will be the only one in London.
