Novak Djokovic, the world-renowned tennis player, is gearing up for another attempt at winning the Wimbledon title to draw level with Roger Federer on a record eight men's Wimbledon singles titles. In an impressive career, Djokovic has already achieved the record for the most Grand Slam singles titles won by a man, with 24 major titles as of 2023[1][2].
Djokovic's Grand Slam record includes a triple Career Grand Slam, an achievement that sets him apart in men’s tennis. He has won each of the four majors (Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, US Open) at least three times[1][2].
At Wimbledon in 2023, Djokovic reached the final for the 9th time but lost to Carlos Alcaraz in a five-set thriller, ending his 34-match winning streak at Wimbledon[2]. Despite this setback, Djokovic has continued to compete at Wimbledon with notable success, reaching Wimbledon’s third round for the 19th time in 2025[3].
In the third round of Wimbledon 2023, Djokovic defeated Dan Evans, a player ranked world number 154, in a straight-set victory of 6-3, 6-2, 6-0[4]. Djokovic had never lost a Grand Slam match to a player ranked as low as Evans, making the victory even more significant[5].
Despite his focus on breaking records and winning more Grand Slam titles, Djokovic has been asked about his retirement plans since winning Olympic singles gold in Paris last year. However, he plans to celebrate with margaritas on the beach with Federer and Nadal when he retires, rather than reflecting on the potential records for now[6].
As the Wimbledon tournament progresses, Djokovic's determination and skill remain undeterred. With each match, he continues to make history and inspire a new generation of tennis players.
