LONDON (Reuters) - Novak Djokovic has been visiting a Buddhist Temple in an effort to escape the pressure-cooker atmosphere of a grand slam, the Serb said after bringing calm to Wimbledon with a comfortable straight sets win on Thursday.

The world number one moved seamlessly into the third round by beating 30-year-old American qualifier Bobby Reynolds 7-6(2) 6-3 6-1, restoring order to the All England Club after the previous day's fireworks.
