With Wimbledon starting on July 2, Djokovic is relishing the prospect of going into a tournament he has won three times with a trophy under his belt. Given his 14-1 career record against Cilic, he will be favoured to beat the Croatian top seed

Novak Djokovic admits his first final in a year will be a "special moment" as the former world number one prepares to face Marin Cilic in the Queen's Club title match. Djokovic has endured a barren 12 months due to a combination of a nagging elbow injury last year and poor form in 2018. The 12-time Grand Slam champion is more accustomed to fighting for the sport's biggest prizes.
But, in a sign of how far he has fallen, Djokovic claimed reaching the final of the Wimbledon warm-up event at Queen's is a significant milestone on his road to recovery. Not since he won the grass-court event at Eastbourne 12 months ago has Djokovic made it to the last day of a tournament. So the 31-year-old's 7-6 (7/5,) 6-4 victory over France's Jeremy Chardy in the semi-finals meant a lot to the Serb.
