- The Serbian player expressed a lack of satisfaction and enjoyment post-match.

Novak Djokovic has achieved a significant milestone at Wimbledon, marking his 106th win on the prestigious grass courts. This victory allowed him to surpass Roger Federer's previous record of 105 wins at the tournament. Despite this historic accomplishment, Djokovic conveyed a subdued sentiment following his round of 16 match.
In a post-match press conference, the World No. 8 stated that he "haven't felt really great on the court" and that "satisfaction and enjoyment were not part of today's win." He expressed relief at securing the victory but hoped for an improved performance in his subsequent matches.
When questioned about surpassing Federer's record, Djokovic downplayed its significance, admitting it was "insignificant to me at the moment" and not a priority. This win adds to his extensive Grand Slam achievements, including 104 wins at the Australian Open.
Djokovic is now set to compete against Felix Auger-Aliassime in the Wimbledon quarterfinals. The match is scheduled for July 7th. Auger-Aliassime has also had a strong tournament, reaching this stage after a series of victories. Their upcoming clash marks their third career meeting.
