He has now won 20 of the 65 majors he’s played. That’s almost one in every three.
He has now reached the final at 30 of the 65 majors he’s played. That’s almost half—and it’s also the second-most major finals for a man in tennis history, after Federer’s 31.
Not only has he won 12 of his last 14 major finals, he has also won 16 of his last 17 major semifinals. Over the last six years he’s a combined 26-3 in semifinals and finals at majors.
For the second straight Slam, he held off a big threat for No. 1. Medvedev was a few wins away from passing Djokovic for No. 1 at Roland Garros and Wimbledon. But not only did Medvedev fall a few rounds short both times, Djokovic won the title both times.
He’s the first man to win four tour-level titles this year. His fellow No. 1, Ashleigh Barty, achieved the same thing at Wimbledon. No other man or woman even has three yet.
He’s now 18-0 since his 34th birthday. He celebrated his birthday on May 22, won Belgrade the next week (4-0), then Roland Garros (7-0), then Wimbledon (7-0). He even won three doubles matches in Mallorca the week before Wimbledon, so technically 21-0.
He has now won 21 matches in a row on grass, all at Wimbledon in 2018, 2019 and 2021. He’s the sixth man in the Open Era to win 21 or more in a row on grass, after Federer (65), Bjorn Borg (41), John McEnroe (23), Pete Sampras (two 23s) and Jimmy Connors (22).
He has now won eight majors since turning 30. That’s the most for a man in the Open Era. He has actually won eight of the last 12 majors that have taken place, period.
He’s the first man to win the Channel Slam in 11 years. The last man to win Roland Garros and Wimbledon back-to-back in the same year was Nadal in 2010.
He captured his 85th career ATP title. He’s still fifth in the Open Era, after Connors (109), Federer (103), Ivan Lendl (94) and Nadal (88), but he’s catching up fast.
With his seven wins at Wimbledon, he’s 102-18 in his career on grass, just the third active men’s player to cross 100. The other two are Federer (192-29) and Andy Murray (110-23).
He’s the first man in 28 years to loše his first set of the tournament at Wimbledon and go on to win the title. Djokovic lost the first set of his opener against No.253-ranked Brit Jack Draper, 6-4, but then won his next 18 sets in a row (and 21 of his next 22) to win the title. The last man to rebound like that at SW19 was Djokovic’s idol, Pete Sampras, in 1993.
He’s now seven wins away from his first Calendar-Year Grand Slam. New York awaits…
