- Wimbledon Championships-7
- US Open-3
- French Open-3
First men’s player to win each Grand Slam more than three times
Nadal, the 14-time champion at Roland Garros, was not playing this time due to injury. Djokovic has also won the title here in 2016 and 2021. He became the first player in the history of tennis to win each Grand Slam at least three times. He has won ten Australian Opens, seven Wimbledon and three US Opens. On this historic victory, Novak Djokovic said, ‘I dreamed of winning the Grand Slam at the age of seven and becoming World No. 1. I am fortunate to be standing here today. I would like to give a message to all the youth that trust yourself and decide your future.
Men’s player to win the most 23 Grand Slams
He is once again on his way to winning all the Grand Slams in a calendar year. Rod Laver did this feat in 1969, which no one could repeat after that. Djokovic came close in 2021 by winning the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon, but lost to Daniil Medvedev in the US Open final. Wimbledon will be played at the All England Club from July 3. Djokovic could not play the Australian Open and the US Open due to not getting vaccinated during the Corona epidemic. With this title, Djokovic also equaled 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams, who retired from tennis last year. Margaret Court has won 24 titles in the amateur era but Djokovic and Serena lead in the open era.
