Novak Djokovic has beaten Matteo Berrettini in the Wimbledon final to win a record-equaling 20th Grand Slam title. Djokovic bounced back from a first-set wobble to win 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-4, 6-3. It was Djokovic’s sixth Wimbledon title and 20th at a major tournament, putting him tied for first on the all-time list with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. The top-ranked Serb broke for a 4-3 lead in the fourth set when Berrettini double-faulted and earned another break in the final game. Djokovic had led 5-2 in the first set. Berrettini was playing in his first Grand Slam final. Here’s how Twitter reacted to Djokovic’s win: Novak Djokovic drew praise for his indomitable fighting spirit
