Novak Djokovic played near-flawless tennis to reach the fourth round at Wimbledon on Saturday, dispatching Jeremy Chardy of France 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.

In a masterful display on Centre Court, the top-ranked Djokovic didn't make a single unforced error until he double-faulted at 4-1, 40-0 in the third set. Until that point, he had lost only three points on his own serve, while pressuring Chardy relentlessly with his returns.

He finished with 38 winners and just three unforced errors.

He will next face Tommy Haas of Germany.
