Djokovic tastes Wimbledon success

NOVAK Djokovic has won his third Wimbledon title with a four-sets triumph over Andy Murray’s conqueror, Roger Federer, reinforcing his status as greatest player in the world.

The 28-year-old Serb marked his win by punching the air and roaring to the celebrity-studded crowd. Then to savour the moment, he squatted down to eat a pinch of the Wimbledon grass. “It tastes very, very good this year. “I was assured that’s it’s gluten free, it’s not processed, completely organic and natural and I could eat it,” quipped the world number one who adheres to a strict gluten-free diet. “I don’t know what the groundskeepers have done, but they’ve done a great job.”
