A straight-sets victory has probably never been tougher to attain for Milos Raonic.
The Canadian defeated Australia's John Millman 7-6(4), 7-6(4), 7-6(4) in the round of 64 at Wimbledon on Wednesday, requiring tiebreaks in each set to claim victory.
Raonic's power was once again on display, with the 27-year-old hitting 34 aces and reaching 236 kilometres per hour on some of his serves.

He wasn't solely reliant on his booming service game though, as Raonic won 31 of 47 net points, showing a confidence that hadn't been with the former world No. 3 during an injury-riddled 2017 season.

With Raonic playing well, Millman pushed the Canadian to the limit in each set. Unfortunately for the Australian, he couldn't match his opponent's power and only managed to break Raonic's serve once. Millman's fate would be decided by how many mistakes Raonic made, and the Canadian was steady enough to see out the match.
Raonic advances to the round of 32, where he'll face qualifier Dennis Novak.
