NOVAK Djokovic tackles Tomas Berdych for a place in the Wimbledon semi-finals today still feeling the raw pain of his defeat to the Czech at the All England Club three years ago.

World number one Djokovic was beaten in straight sets in the semi-finals by Berdych in 2010, a defeat which raised serious doubts over whether or not the gifted but unpredictable Serb would ever build on his Australian Open breakthrough of 2008.
