Description
Novak Djokovic (37), the "G.O.A.T." who finally achieved the "Career Golden Grand Slam" at the 2024 Paris Olympics, has set another milestone.
Djokovic held the third round of the 2024 U.S. Open tennis tournament with Laslo Zere at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York, New York, on the 29th (Korea time).
Djokovic overwhelmed Zere throughout the match and secured a 3-0 (6-4, 6-4. 2-0) set score. Zere gave up the game due to injury and secured victory during the third set.After the match, BBC and other media reported that Djokovic won more than 90 games in all four major tennis competitions. This is the first time in tennis history.
Before the latest event, Djokovic had 94 wins at the Australian Open, 96 wins at the French Open, 97 wins at Wimbledon and 88 wins at the U.S. Open. He added two more wins at the latest event.
Now, Djokovic is aiming to win 100 games at one of the four major championships regardless of whether he will add a Grand Slam title or not. He is expected to gain the much-awaited 100 wins at the 2026 U.S. Open.The figures are far ahead of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who have competed for the "G.O.A.T." Federer has only +70 wins and Nadal has +50 wins.
The reason why they show a significant difference from Djokovic is that Federer and Nadal won only 73 and 58 at the French Open and Wimbledon, respectively.
Djokovic, who has 24 wins in major competitions in his career, recently won the Olympic gold medal and achieved the career "Golden" Grand Slam.
Now Djokovic is aiming to win his 25th major and fifth U.S. Open title. Djokovic has 10 Australian titles, three French titles, seven Wimbledon titles, and four U.S. Open titles.
