Bookies give Anderson little chance

Cape Town - A fifth and deciding set will decide the Wimbledon fourth round clash between world No 1 Novak Djokovic and SA's Kevin Anderson - but bookmakers give Anderson little chance of prevailing.

Anderson stunned Djokovic on Monday evening, taking the first two sets 7-6 (8/6), 7-6 (8/6), before Djokovic fought back to claim sets three and four, 6-1, 6-4.

The pair will resume battle on Court 1 at 14:00 SA time on Tuesday.

Leading SA bookies Sportingbet have, however, given Anderson little chance of progressing to the quarter-finals, listed Djokovic as a 2/11 favourite with Anderson available at 7/2.
