The world number one beat Bobby Reynolds 7-6 6-3 6-1 on a rain hit evening at SW19 as the roof was closed for the first time this week on centre court.

The 2011 champion will play either Jeremy Chardy or Jan-Lennard Struff in round 3.

From the out set the American made it clear he wouldn't let Djokovic run away with the match after he saved a succession of break points against the Serbian.

Djokovic looked relieved when he prevailed in the first set tie-break, and had a breakthrough in the third game of the second set.

The Serbian won eight of last 9 games to clinch victory on centre court in the only style Djokovic can, world class style.
