Wimbledon Lookahead: Dustin Brown Tries for Encore

LONDON — After his stunning win over Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon, Dustin Brown said it was easy to play well when expectations were so low.

The 102nd-ranked German won't have that luxury on Saturday against Viktor Troicki. Everyone wants to see what Wimbledon's latest sensation can do for an encore.

"Dustin was very entertaining yesterday," said Nick Kyrgios, the Australian who beat Nadal in the fourth round here last year. "I thought he played some really courageous tennis as well. The crowd loved it. He's very unorthodox what he does out there and I thought it was pretty cool.
