Novak Djokovic added another record to his name by reaching Wimbledon's third round for a 19th time with a 6-3, 6-2, 6-0 win over Dan Evans on Centre Court on Wednesday.

It was Djokovic's 99th match win at Wimbledon overall, and the 19 third-round appearances put him one ahead of Roger Federer for most by any man in the Open Era.

It's hardly the most prestigious record for Djokovic, whose 24 Grand Slam titles - including seven at Wimbledon - are the most by a male player. But he could at least use it to poke fun at his new, and much younger, main rivals.

"Nineteen times, that's a great stat," said the 38-year-old Djokovic. "That's probably almost as much as Sinner and Alcaraz have years in their lives."

Well, not quite.
