Defending champion Novak Djokovic reached the Wimbledon third round for the 16th time on Wednesday as potential semifinal opponent Casper Ruud crashed out.

“It was one-way traffic. I got chopped today,” said the 26-year-old Australian after his Centre Court torment.

Lesia Tsurenko came out on top in three sets over Ukrainian compatriot Anhelina Kalinina to make the third round for the second time.“It was a big court. Two Ukrainian players but a lot of people were watching us. We felt amazing support,” said Tsurenko after her 3-6, 6-4, 6-3 win. Former No 1 Murray, now down at 52 in the world, needed four sets to defeat Australia’s James Duckworth on Monday.

He is confident he has the weapons at his disposal, having fired 54 aces to knock out qualifier Enzo Couacaud on Monday.
