Since 2018, Novak Djokovic has a perfect record in the All England Club as he's a defending champion at the 2022 Wimbledon and Felix Auger-Aliassime praised him after his loss in Hurlingham.

Novak Djokovic played in the Wimbledon finals of 2018, 2019, and last year, and the Serbian overcame all of his opponents. He entered the previous two championships as the top seed, and he will do so again in 2022. Felix Auger-Aliassime, who won the most sets against Rafael Nadal at the 2022 Roland Garros, spoke about the two big rivals.

“He was a lot better than me for sure. It was a difficult day on the court. He was on it. He was playing well. I was struggling with my serve quite a lot. Novak I felt like he was striking the ball well and returning the ball well from the first game."

“Are Novak and Rafa still the two players to beat? Yes I think so. The sport has evolved and this generation bow is playing a long time. Hopefully mine will play a long time as well. Definitely you can still see that Novak is as fit as all the players on the tour and in the draw at Wimbledon. Considering he is the defending champion, he is one of the best players in history on the grass, he is probably one of the favourites with Rafa.”
