Unhappy: Novak Djokovic reacts after beating Britain's Kyle Edmund  Photo: AFP

Huh? Unhappy after winning? Don't think so, the way tennis players grunt and groan it's timing that counts!

I am pretty sure he is happier that he won than the picture you decided to post here shows.

Didn't expect Kei would waltz past Kyrgios like that but in the bigger scheme of things, just the type of result he needs.

A pity Osaka could not progress further this time.

Taiwan's Hsieh Su-Wei ( and none of this Chinese Taipei crap), was the big news of the day! Well done.

And what is it with Zverev - he just can't seem to do well when it comes to Grand Slams. But it's good to see him look less and less miserable nowadays. Not long ago, he used to blame everyone but himself when he lost.

Well done Kei-Chan! Kei-Chan loves Wimbledon, and grass surface. This could be his year,Federer and Djokovich are not getting younger, and Kei-Chan is on the rise. That was a crushing win over Kyrgios, so onto Week 2!! Bad luck to Naomi-Chan, but she is young and has at least 10 years to get the Title.

Djokevic looks really angry. I dont like his aggression and attitude, especially at gentlemans tournament, Wimbledon.

Is this how a Serbian reacts after being told Croatia reached the semis in the World Cup?

Funny enough I was in Slovenia the year that Djokovic beat Nadal in the final here, and the locals in Slovenia were all firmly in Serbian Djokovic's camp, rather than the Spaniard’s.

Did the Spaniard cheat like the South African/Briton?

Funny enough,

"The crowd was very fair when I played against Andy. Obviously they support their player," he said.

This REALLY could be his year!

Good luck in the next round to Kei, from the JT Nishikei fan club!

fxgai: "just the type of result he needs."

He sure does! I think he's ranked 28th now.

Ganbare Japan: "Well done Kei-Chan! Kei-Chan loves Wimbledon, and grass surface. This could be his year,"

If he can only play on a grass surface, he's not a very dynamic player. As for being his year, don't you guys ever get tired of saying that? fxgai has been since 2013 or something, and even bet his tennis pride on Nishikori and lost. What does "being his year" qualify as? Moving from 28th to 25th? Meanwhile... back at the top.
