Djokovic skipped the first round and he will be playing against young French tennis player Luca Van Assche who defeated Stan Wawrinka on Wednesday or Thursday.
“I don’t know much about the young French player. I thought Wawrinka would win the match. I saw him play but not for long, he is a real fighter, fast, it’s difficult to get past him. No one should be underestimated. I hope we’ll have full stands and fine weather.”
Djokovic did not practice at the Centre Court but Viktor Troicki explained to him that there was a great difference between the Centre Court and other tennis courts.
“I practiced on one tennis court only. I still haven’t stepped on the Centre Court. I will try to practice there for at least half an hour before my first match. Troicki told me there was a difference. It’s a very slow court. Points are very long.”
