Live Score Wimbledon 2021: Djokovic Completes Historic Calendar Slam

The eyes of the tennis world were on the All England Lawn Tennis Club in London as Novak Djokovic took to the court for the men's singles final at Wimbledon 2021. And what a day it was! The Serbian superstar cemented his legacy by winning his sixth Wimbledon title, but more impressively, he became just the third man to achieve a calendar Grand Slam in the Open Era.

Djokovic's victory over Matteo Berrettini was a dominant display of tennis prowess, as he won three sets with ease. The 34-year-old has now won three Grand Slams this year - the Australian Open, French Open, and Wimbledon - putting him on the cusp of greatness. He joins an elite group of players who have achieved the calendar Slam, including Don Budge (1938), Rod Laver (1962, 1969), Maureen Connolly Brinker (1953), Margaret Court (1970), and Steffi Graf (1988).

Djokovic's impressive win is a testament to his hard work, dedication, and adaptability. He has overcome numerous challenges throughout his career, including injuries and setbacks, to emerge as one of the greatest tennis players of all time.

In an emotional post-match interview, Djokovic paid tribute to his idols Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, saying, 'I have to pay tribute to Rafa and Roger... They are legends of our sport and they are the two most important players that I ever faced in my career.'

This win takes Djokovic's Grand Slam tally to 20, and with it, he has the chance to overtake Nadal and Federer in the all-time record. However, for now, he is content to bask in the glory of his historic achievement.

Berrettini, on the other hand, played a brave game, pushing Djokovic to three sets before ultimately falling short. The Italian, who was playing in his first Grand Slam final, showed great skill and determination throughout the match.

As Djokovic hoisted the Wimbledon trophy aloft, he was overcome with emotion, saying, 'Winning Wimbledon was always the biggest dream of mine as a kid... And today, standing with a sixth Wimbledon title, it's incredible, amazing.'

With this win, Novak Djokovic solidifies his position as one of the greatest tennis players of all time. His journey to becoming a calendar Slam champion is a testament to his perseverance and dedication to the sport.

The world of tennis celebrates another chapter in the legendary tale of Novak Djokovic - the 2021 Wimbledon champion for a sixth time.
