    It's what champions do. Novak Djokovic has immediately shrugged off the disappointment of dropping the second set to take control of the third.

    Tim van Rijthoven has been caught out following the inevitable buzz of taking a set off the defending champion on Centre Court, but the crowd are trying their best to help him rediscover his earlier levels. He needs to hold here or he'll swiftly find himself chasing the match once again.
