LONDON—Novak Djokovic sealed his 30th straight Grand Slam win by beating Adrian Mannarino on Wednesday. Now his next opponent, Sam Querrey, has the formidable task of ending that streak.
“The record that I managed to break today is one of the better ones because, obviously as a professional tennis player, you always aim to play your best in Grand Slams,” Djokovic said. “You want to be consistent and win as many matches in these tournaments that matter the most in our sport.”
Querrey earned a chance to rattle the world No. 1 in the third round after beating Thomaz Bellucci in straight sets on Thursday.
“I would much rather play literally anyone else at this point,” the American said of his next opponent.
