NO KIDDING...HE CAN WIN

Novak backed by pal Kyrgios to win record title

- NEIL MCLEMAN

NICK KYRGIOS thinks Novak Djokovic winning back the Wimbledon title will be child's play because the "young guys" are not big enough to beat him.

The seven-time champion yesterday got a walkover into the semi-finals after Alex De Minaur pulled out with a hip injury.

And while Lorenzo Musetti needed five sets to see off Taylor Fritz, the Serbian had a gentle hit at Aorangi Park with his kids Stefan and Tara.

From being a serious doubt to even play here after having knee surgery on June 5, Djokovic is now only two wins from a record 25th Grand Slam singles title and equalling Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon wins.
