Fearnley left Centre Court to a standing ovation after he made a strong impression during his debut week at a grand-slam.

British number 13 Jacob Fearnley was grateful to receive pre-match pointers from Andy Murray before he pushed Novak Djokovic in a high-quality second-round defeat to the seven-time Wimbledon champion.

“He gave Mark some points to give to me, which was nice. The stuff he said actually helped a lot. Not unsurprisingly because he’s played him so many times. That was really nice of him. No nerves were initially present from Fearnley, who walked out with his white baseball cap back-to-front and sealed a simple hold with a 121mph ace.

He repeated the feat six games later when Djokovic sent his forehand wide to give the Scot a memorable set.
