[LoViNg IrFaN]

NOVAK DJOKOVIC stunned Rafael Nadal to be crowned Wimbledon champion for the first time.

Djokovic shocked No1 seed Nadal to take the first set after it looked primed for a tie-break with neither player willing to give ground.
That was until the 10th game when Djokovic succeeded with just the first break point of the encounter.
The Australian Open champion pumped his fists with joy after a rare wide forehand from Nadal handed him the set.
Nadal responded to losing the first set of his semi-final against Andy Murray by pulling out some of his best tennis.
But he was struggling to repeat that form as Djokovic continued to grow in confidence.
The Serbian won the first three games of the second set with ease before Nadal ended his run of five games without a win by holding.
Djokovic moved 4-1 ahead before a third break of the match came in the sixth game when he won a rally despite a brilliant improvised smash from Nadal.
He then underlined his supremacy over Nadal by serving out to love and move a step closer to his first Wimbledon title.
However, at two sets down, Nadal was urged on by the bumper crowd and soon rallied.
In a mirror image of the previous set, Nadal won the first three games before both players held their serves.
Nadal then broke again, thanks to a Djokovic double fault, before holding his serve to love to seal the set.

It was Djokovic who turned the screw in the fourth though, winning his first service game before breaking to take the advantage.
But immediately, Nadal broke back and held his serve to level.
It remained on serve until the eighth game when Djokovic broke again. Nadal simply had no response.
The Belgrade-born ace took a 40-30 lead in the final game before sealing victory when Nadal's return went long.
