Novak Djokovic has overcame an uncharacteristically unsteady start to avoid what would have been his earliest exit at Wimbledon since 2016.

The win marked the 16th time Djokovic has moved into the quarterfinals at Wimbledon. The event has been his second-best Grand Slam over his career. Djokovic has seven wins at Wimbledon, and has played in the final at the event in each of the last six Wimbledons.
