Nole loves breaking records as much as he loves winning titles! After his title triumph in Geneva, Novak Djokovic joined Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer as the only men in the Open Era to win 100 or more titles. With that, he also became the first man in the Open Era to lift a trophy in 20 different seasons. Following that emphatic feat, Djokovic thanked his family and team for staying beside him through thick and thin. He said, “Only you know how difficult it is to sustain this level of craziness from me on the court. I want to thank you for earning, together with me, this victory number 100.” After that, he took his flight to Paris to achieve yet another milestone in his career! What’s that? Well, before securing his 25th Grand Slam title, the Serb has now added yet another feather to his cap with his recent win over Cameron Norrie in the fourth round of the French Open.
Novak Djokovic defeated the Brit by 6-2,6-3,6-2 in that match, and with that win, he has reached his 19th Roland Garros QF. No other player has reached so many QFs in the same Slam. It is also his 100th win at the French Open. Only Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have 100 wins at Roland Garros. What else did he achieve with this win against Norrie?
Well, Djokovic has now also become the oldest man to reach the French Open QF since Istvan Gulyas in 1971. He now has 100+ ATP title and 100+ Roland Garros wins. Insane!
Where do we start?
