Novak Djokovic beat Andy Roddick 6-2, 6-1 in the second round of the Olympics at Wimbledon on Tuesday.

The second-ranked Serb had little trouble against the hard-serving American and finished with 34 winners to Roddick’s 12.

Djokovic, a bronze medalist in the singles in 2008, raised his arms and smiled broadly after the match. Roddick, a three-time Wimbledon finalist, quickly left Centre Court, his head bowed.
