Novak Djokovic said he would make good on his deal to buy Nick Kyrgios drinks and dinner subsequent to beating the Australian to guarantee a fourth progressive Wimbledon title on Sunday.
The 35-year-old remained ice cool on a wildly sweltering evening as he consumed some early brilliance from dissident Kyrgios to return from a set down and win 4-6 6-3 6-4 7-6(3).
The 27-year-old Kyrgios, who illuminated his most memorable Grand Slam last with his special mix of novel shot-production and verbal diarrhoea depicted Djokovic as a God subsequent to capitulating in a retaining three-hour challenge.
In the development to the final the players, who recently had a cold relationship, were all harmony and concordance with a deal being made for the winner to buy dinner, although Kyrgios had suggested they “go nuts in a club”.
“I don’t know if we’re going to make it happen tonight or some other night,” a beaming Djokovic, who now owns seven Wimbledon and 21 Grand Slam titles, said on court after his trademark celebration of eating some blades of grass.
“This is a start of a wonderful relationship between us off the court as well. I didn’t respond to the (nightclub invitation) as my wife was sitting next to me. Let’s start with dinner and drinks and let’s see.”
Kyrgios pushed Djokovic hard yet couldn’t forestall the 35-year-old Serb taking his first Grand Slam title for a year.
“Congrats to you and your team for an amazing tournament, I wish you all the best man I really really respect you a lot,” Djokovic said. “I think you are a phenomenal tennis player and athlete and amazing talent.
