Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal were making last-minute preparations out on the training courts ahead of their Wimbledon first-round matches. Top seed Djokovic, looking to win a seventh title at SW19, is first up on Centre Court on Monday when he takes on Korean world No 75 Soonwoo Kwon. The 35-year-old Serbian has not played a competitive match since <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport" target="_blank">losing to Nadal at the French Open</a> on May 31 when his old rival went on <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/tennis/2022/06/05/rafael-nadal-claims-14th-french-open-title-with-ruthless-victory-at-roland-garros/" target="_blank">to win the tournament</a> at Roland Garros. Top seed Djokovic triumphed at Wimbledon last year after <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/tennis/2021/07/11/novak-djokovic-wins-wimbledon-to-equal-roger-federer-and-rafael-nadal-on-20-grand-slams/" target="_blank">defeating Italy's Matteo Berrettini 6-7, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3</a>. That title in Paris was Nadal's record-extending 22nd Grand Slam title – his 14th at the clay-court Slam – taking him two clear of Djokovic and Roger Federer. The 36-year-old Spaniard has won Wimbledon twice, although the last of those was back in 2010 when he defeated Tomas Berdych in straight sets.
