LONDON, July 10 (Xinhua) -- Defending champion Novak Djockovic beat Frechman Richard Gasquet in straight sets to reach the Wimbledon final here on Friday.

It was Djockovic's 7th consecutive Wimbledon semifinal and after losing to Stan Wawrinka in the French Open final, he looks in form to win a second Grand Slam champion after the Australian Open victory in January.
The 28-year-old will next take on the winner of the other semifinal between seven-time champion Roger Federer and 2013 winner Andy Murray, which will be held later on Centre Court.
The final will be held on Sunday.
