Wimbledon: Novak Djokovic beats Tim van Rijthoven to set up Jannik Sinner quarter-final
Only once has Djokovic lost to a player ranked lower than Van Rijthoven at a Grand Slam - and it has been over five years since that happened, when he fell to the 117th-ranked Denis Istomin at the 2017 Australian Open.
But while he was unable to pull off an almighty upset, Van Rijthoven announced himself on one of the sport's grandest stages with heavy hitting and a dogged determination to claim the second set. Successive aces ensured Van Rijthoven delivered a significant twist, eventually levelling the contest at the third opportunity.
On Sunday it was Sinner who shone more brightly, serving and returning superbly to triumph 6-1 6-4 6-7 6-3 to reach the quarter-finals for the first time.
