Djokovic Crushes Chardy

World number one Novak Djokovic cruised into the fourth round with a thrashing of the 28th seed Jeremy Chardy.

Djokovic hit just two unforced errors, one a double fault, on his way to a 6-3 6-2 6-2 win over the Frenchman, who found his opponent unplayable.
The Serb lost just six points on his own serve, in a match which lasted one hour and 26 minutes, to send out a warning to the rest of the draw.

His last-16 opponent will be Tommy Haas, who beat Feliciano Lopez.
Australian Bernard Tomic stunned ninth seed Richard Gasquet to reach the fourth round for the second time, reports the BBC. Tomic, ranked 59 in the world, won 7-6 (9-7) 5-7 7-5 7-6 (7-5), in a match which lasted two hours and 46 minutes.
The 20-year-old will next face number seven seed Tomas Berdych after he beat Kevin Anderson of South Africa 3-6 6-3 6-4 7-5.

Tomic has had to deal with unwanted headlines off the court since early May, after his father John – also his coach – was banned by the ATP, having been charged with assaulting the former Wimbledon quarter-finalist’s practice partner.
