Defending Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic faced little resistance during his opening match at the All England Club. The Serbian world number cruised past former number one Juan Carlos Ferrero 6-3, 6-3, 6-1.
Djokovic dominated the 2011 season capped with a 43-1 record going into this grasscourt Slam event. Despite not matching the streak last year, Djokovic is said to be the favorite among bettors with a 13:8 to win Wimbledon, while rival Nadal is at 2:1.
The next opponent for Djokovic is either Ryan Harrison or Yen-Hsun Lu, both have posted decent grasscout match records prior to entering the Wimbledon tournament and could be a much more challenge for the defending champion.
