Novak Djokovic faces fellow Serb Miomir Kecmanovic for a place in the Wimbledon last 16 on Friday as John Isner targets becoming the sport's king of aces. Kecmanovic, 22, has lost both his previous two meetings against the man he describes as his "idol". However, with 2002 Wimbledon runner-up David Nalbandian in his coaching team, he is enjoying a breakout season.
