Djokovic Inspired At Wimbledon By Squirrely Friend

The little gray varmint in Novak Djokovic’s backyard at Wimbledon is no nuisance to the second-seeded Serb.

Djokovic, who reached the third round at the All England Club with a 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 win over Kevin Anderson, put a picture of his new buddy on Twitter before taking the court Thursday.

“It’s my best friend now in London, the little squirrel,” Djokovic said. “She’s getting closer and closer each day. I’m trying to feed her from my hand. Maybe one day.”

As long as the foraging rodent doesn’t bite the hand that wants to feed it, Djokovic will remain one of the favorites at this year’s tournament.

The Australian Open champion has never reached the final at Wimbledon, twice losing in the semifinals, but if he makes it to the deciding match this year he will guarantee himself the No. 1 ranking.
