Djokovic powers through heat wave to win in four

Serbian ace suggests playing later matches to avoid soaring Paris temperatures

Novak Djokovic placed ice packs around his neck and on top of his head during changeovers to keep cool amid the Paris heat wave at the French Open on Wednesday.

Djokovic continued his latest tilt at a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title with a four-set victory on Wednesday to reach the third round, but suggested matches should be pushed back later in the day to combat the heat wave broiling the players at Roland Garros.
