Regardless of who the greatest in tennis is, there is no denying that Djokovic was part of the sport’s greatest era alongside Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. The trio have won a combined 66 Grand Slam titles over two decades, marking one of the most dominant periods in the history of sports.
Federer broke the Grand Slam record in 2009, surpassing Pete Sampras. Nadal later surpassed Federer’s tally at the 2022 Australian Open. Eventually, Djokovic broke the Grand Slam record at the 2023 Roland Garros, claiming his 23rd title.
