Wimbledon 2015 : Novak Djorkovic is into the Quarter Finals

Defending champion Novak Djokovic is into the quarter-finals at Wimbledon after completing his comeback from two sets down to beat Kevin Anderson. 

Djokovic had levelled at two sets all when bad light stopped play on Monday.
He struggled to find his rhythm when the match resumed on Tuesday after a delay because of rain.
But the world number one and top seed finally got to grips with the big-serving South African to win 6-7 (6-8) 6-7 (6-8) 6-1 6-4 7-5. 

Kevin served exceptionally well," Djokovic said. "This was one of the most difficult matches I have played at Wimbledon in my career. 

"It was high-quality tennis in the fifth set. At times I was helpless with my return - it was very difficult to read his serve and he was very aggressive. 

"I was two sets down and coming back to win gives me great satisfaction and confidence for my next challenge." 

John Lloyd, former British number one
"I think Novak didn't really enjoy the match up until the match point when the ball went wide. It is a nasty match for him. It was mentally fatiguing for him to see someone hit big serves time after time. He did not get into any rhythm and will be so relieved to get through the match."

Djokovic was on top when play was halted on Monday but he took time to get into his stride after returning to Court One to fight out the deciding set. 

The match was delayed by half an hour because of rain but Anderson quickly got his booming serve into gear, firing down three aces in the first game. 

In contrast, Djokovic had to fight to avoid being broken early on, and his frustration was obvious as another shower threatened to bring another pause in play. 

The rain quickly passed and it was not long until Djokovic had Anderson in trouble when the 6ft 8in right-hander saw his serve falter for the first time. 

Two double-faults at 5-5 gave Djokovic his first chance to break in the decider, and he did not miss his opportunity. 

He held his arms aloft and blew a kiss towards the sky after serving out his victory after 44 minutes back on court, in a match that lasted a total of three hours and 46 minutes. 

Djokovic will play ninth seed Marin Cilic in the last eight. The Croatian also took him to five sets at SW19 in 2014.
