New world's #1 - Novak Djokovic

WIMBLEDON, England (AP)—Rafael Nadal will get to play one more match as the top-ranked man in the tennis world, and it will be in the Wimbledon final against the man who is going to replace him.
The defending champion reached his fifth final at the All England Club on Friday, beating Andy Murray 5-7, 6-2, 6-2, 6-4. But the win wasn’t enough to hold onto his No. 1 ranking, which instead will go to Novak Djokovic for the first time on Monday.
That’s because the second-seeded Serb improved his record 47-1 this year with a 7-6 (4), 6-2, 6-7 (9), 6-3 victory over Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in a match filled with diving shots by both players.

Congrats to your countryman Zoran.

Here's hoping he beats that clay court Spaniard this Sunday.

Thank you.
Yesterday when Novak was playing against Tsonga, here in Belgrade streets were empty and all bars were full. I had to stand at the corner of the bar for few hours until match finished.

It was a match between Titians! Great to see and well deserved win. I've watched Novak over the years, getting better and better.
