Djokovic 5-2 Berrettini*
So far, Berrettini has only got 10 of 20 first serves in. That ratio has to improve, and quickly, if the direction of this match is to change.

Tim Purcell: How do you make someone that has experienced everything in the game feel uncomfortable and keep them guessing? For Berrettini it has to be the serve but it’s just not clicking. Yet.
Djokovic 5-2 Berrettini*
Game five was a hold to love from Djokovic, game seven it's to 15.
Djokovic not giving the underdog any hint of thinking he is going to be able to come back in this set. One more game for the reigning Wimbledon champion and the first set is his.

Berrettini just needs to stay in touch, hold his serves and bit by bit calm down and get that backhand working.
*Djokovic 4-2 Berrettini
A much-needed hold for Matteo Berrettini, but he's still a break down in the first set.
Djokovic 4-1 Berrettini*
Some screams from the fans as Djokovic somehow sends back a shot which had been at his face, he then slides to get a drop shot, but can only flip it to Berrettini, who finishes off a thrilling point. 30-30

He had to save a break point in the opening game of the final, but now Djokovic is looking the steadier.

It's the perfect start for Djokovic.

In no time, this set is racing away from Matteo Berrettini as a lightning fast hold to love from Djokovic backs up that break in the best way possible.

Groans from the Berrettini fans inside Centre Court as the Italian loses serve.
Falling behind early doors to a frontrunner as good as Djokovic is the last thing he wanted to do.

Djokovic is getting hold of Berrettini's second serve. He really attacked them.
*Djokovic 3-1 Berrettini
We've been saying how bad Novak Djokovic has been, he's just taken the first break of the match, with some backhand wizadry.
Djokovic's slump lasted about a game and a half, one of which he won anyway.

We said before the match the first couple of games were very important for Berrettini to settle in.
To hold here would be a huge step forward - but he's not there yet.
A loose forehand from Berrettini is an open goal for Novak Djokovic. Let's hope the Italian defenders will be as generous later on.
Second break point for Djokovic.
Djokovic moves into the net and piles on the pressure. Berrettini goes high with the lob, but it's out and Djokovic has his first break point of the match, although he can't take it. Deuce.
Djokovic 2-1 Berrettini*
Berrettini starts off the fourth game with an ace but successive shots into the net, a sliced backhand and a flailing forehand, leave it at 15-30.

It's been a bit nervous from both players but, as is often the case with Djokovic, he finds a way to get the job done.
He could have easily lost both of those opening service games, but it won't take him long to start to settle and begin putting pressure on Berrettini's serve.

Marion Bartoli
Former Wimbledon champion on BBC Radio 5 Live
It's really weird - Djokovic hasn't been able to find the timing at all and every time he has a second serve it's like he feels he has to go for it more.
He has missing a lot of his backhands in the net. He really hasn't had a confident start so far.
