Novak Djokovic made clear for years that this was his goal and now he finally stands alone -- ahead of Rafael Nadal, ahead of Roger Federer, ahead of every man who ever has swung a racket.
Serbia's Novak Djokovic reacts after winning the men's singles final match of the French Open tennis tournament against Norway's Casper Ruud in three sets, 7-6, , 6-3, 7-5, at the Roland Garros stadium in Paris, Sunday, June 11, 2023. Novak Djokovic made clear for years that this was his goal. What drove him. What inspired him.
Djokovic, a 36-year-old from Serbia, puts this one alongside the French Open titles he earned in 2016 and 2021, making him the only man with at least three from each major event. He has won 10 trophies at the Australian Open, seven at Wimbledon and three at the U.S. Open. He has now clutched the trophy at 11 of the last 20 Slams, a remarkable run made even more so when considering that he did not participate in two majors during that span because he did not get vaccinated against COVID-19. Djokovic was deported from Australia in January 2021 before the Australian Open, and he was not allowed to fly to the United States ahead of last year's U.S. Open under a rule that has since been lifted.
Nadal's 22nd major arrived in Paris two days after he turned 36. He has been sidelined since January by a hip injury and had arthroscopic surgery on June 2.
