Djokovic storms into last eight
WIMBLEDON
Date: 22 June - 5 July
World number four Novak Djokovic produced a professional display to overcome plucky Israeli Dudi Sela and reach the quarter-finals of Wimbledon.
The Serbian rarely had to produce his best tennis despite Sela's best efforts, though he was broken twice.
However, he broke Sela's serve seven times in reply to win 6-2 6-4 6-1.
He will now face Tommy Haas after the German 24th seed reached Wimbledon's quarter-finals for the first time with a straight-sets win over Igor Andreev.
The 31-year-old held his nerve in a first-set tie break, before a break of serve in each of the next two sets earned him a 7-6 (10-8) 6-4 6-4 win.

Haas, the oldest player left in the men's draw, showed superb timing off both wings to wear down Andreev.
The Djokovic-Haas quarter-final match-up is a repeat of the Halle tournament final last month, won by the German.
