Timestamps
00:00 Introduction
01:01 Djokovic: "I'm going for EVERY Record Possible!"
01:33 (13) ATP Singles Titles
The record for the most ATP singles titles, held by American legend Jimmy Connors at 109, looms as a mountain yet to be scaled.
02:34 (12) Wimbledon Men’s Singles TitlesWimbledon, with its history and prestige, holds a special place in Djokovic's illustrious career. With seven titles, he is just one behind Roger Federer's record eight triumphs.
03:38 (11) US Open Men’s Titles
The US Open presents another arena for Djokovic to etch his name in the annals of tennis history.
04:25 (10) Oldest Grand Slam Champion
If Djokovic were to claim his fifth US Open crown at the 2024 edition of the New York major, he would become the oldest Grand Slam singles champion in tennis history. Australian legend Ken Rosewall currently holds the record, having won the 1972 Australian Open at the age of 37 years, 1 month and 24 days.
04:47 (9) Oldest ATP World Number 1
In the realm of tennis, age is both a number and a narrative. For Djokovic, it's a narrative of breaking barriers and setting new benchmarks. The quest to become the oldest Grand Slam singles champion and to hold the ATP world No. 1 ranking as the oldest player are milestones within his reach.
05:41 (8) Defending ALL FOUR Grand Slam Titles
Djokovic could become the first male player to successfully defend the title at all four Grand Slam tournaments if he defends his French Open and US Open crowns this season.
06:19 (7) Indian Wells Titles
The Masters 1000 events, including the Indian Wells and Miami Open, have long been stages at which Djokovic has showcased his mastery over the game. Tied with Federer for the most titles at Indian Wells and with Andre Agassi at the Miami Open, Djokovic's return to these tournaments is highly anticipated. His pursuit of breaking these ties is not just about adding to his trophy cabinet; it's about cementing his legacy as one of the game's all-time greats.
07:10 (6) Miami Open Titles
Djokovic shares the record for the most titles at the Miami Open with American icon Andre Agassi, having triumphed six times at the tournament which was first held in 1985.
07:32 (5) Grand Slam Tournament Appearances
Federer and Spanish favourite Feliciano Lopez are tied for the most appearances in Grand Slam tournaments, having each featured in 81 majors during their lengthy careers. Djokovic and Richard Gasquet both currently sit next on this list with 73 major main draw appearances, with the Serb likely to match or break this record if he is still playing two years from now.
08:22 (4) Grand Slam Quarter-Finals
At the 2024 Australian Open, Djokovic equalled a record which was previously owned solely by Federer for the most Grand Slam quarter-finals reached with 58. The world Number 1 will almost certainly stand alone in this metric at some point this year - likely in his next major appearance at the French Open.
08:42 (3) Grand Slam Match Wins
Djokovic has won 366 Grand Slam matches, a total which puts him just three behind Federer’s record tally of 369. This is, therefore, another milestone Djokovic will likely take from his Swiss rival in the near future. These wins are a saga of triumphs that underscore his journey from a promising talent to a global icon. As he edges closer to surpassing Federer's record for the most match wins, each victory is a testament to his resilience, adaptability, and the relentless pursuit of greatness that defines his career.
09:17 (2) Grand Slam Matches
Like with match wins in majors, the world No 1 is closing in on Federer when it comes to matches played in Grand Slams.After his run to the semi-final of last month’s Australian Open, the Serbian has now contested 415 matches in the sport’s four biggest tournaments, putting him 14 behind Federer, who has played 429.
09:42 (1) Most Open Era Match Wins
Connors has won more total ATP matches than any other player with 1,274 and this will likely be the toughest of these records for Djokovic to break. The 36-year-old has won 1,094 matches and it will be a very tall order to add another 180 to reach the American’s total, but there is a chance if he plays on.
