List of career achievements by Novak Djokovic
This article lists various career, tournament, and seasonal achievements by Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic.
Djokovic is a seventeen-time Grand Slam champion and five-time year-end World No.1.[1] He is one of eight male players to achieve the Career Grand Slam and the only one in tennis history to hold all four Grand Slams on three different surfaces at once. Djokovic is also the only player to win all ATP tour Elite tournaments.
Djokovic is widely viewed by many sports analysts, fans and media pundits as one of the greatest tennis players of all time, often rated alongside Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Pete Sampras and Björn Borg.[lower-alpha 1] He has reached 26 Grand Slam finals and played the final of each Grand Slam tournament at least four times. He has won 5 World Tour Finals titles, four of which were won consecutively from 2012 to 2015 (record).
Djokovic's 2011 season is considered as one of the greatest seasons by a tennis player in the Open Era. Djokovic won 10 titles on 3 different surfaces and defeated Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer a total of ten times collectively, going 10–1 against them. Djokovic went on a 43-match win streak and set a then record of 5 Masters titles won in a season. In 2015 Djokovic won three majors in one season for the second time, improved his record of most Masters won in a season by winning six titles, and finished the year winning his fourth consecutive World Tour Finals title. Djokovic also made the finals of all big tournaments he played in 2015 defeating 31 Top-10 players along the way (Open Era record) and setting an all-time ATP rankings record. Djokovic's 2015 is seen as the greatest season in the Open Era by many fans and analysts.
Djokovic's consistency on the ATP tour is matched only by Roger Federer. For almost 10 years, Djokovic lost only 3 times in Grand Slams before the quarter-finals, making 35 quarterfinals, 30 semifinals and 20 finals. In the same period of time, Djokovic participated in 81 Masters tournaments and made 66 quarterfinals, 55 semifinals and 42 finals. Djokovic has the records of 15 straight finals in a single season, a streak of 11 Masters finals and 18 straight top-tier tournament finals. Djokovic is the first and only player since the 1973 ATP rankings were introduced to have accrued 16,950 points, more than the world number 2 and 3 combined.
Djokovic has won 34 titles in the ATP Masters tournaments, only one title behind Rafael Nadal who holds the record. By 2018, he has won Masters titles across all 9 venues where Masters tournaments are held, becoming the first and only player to achieve the "Career Golden Masters". As a result, he is considered to be the greatest and most accomplished player in ATP Masters history for his versatility and success in winning the Masters tournaments on a consistent basis.[15]
Djokovic is widely viewed as one of the greatest hardcourt players of the Open Era, if no the greatest.[16] He has the record of most hardcourt Majors and Masters titles.
Besides hard courts and grass courts, Djokovic is also a remarkable player on clay courts with some great achievements on clay. He won 13 titles on clay, including a French Open title and 9 Masters titles which is second only to Rafael Nadal's (known as King of Clay) record of 24. Djokovic is one of two players (with Robin Söderling) to defeat Rafael Nadal in French Open, and the only player to date to have defeated Nadal in Roland Garros in straight sets. He is also the only player to defeat Nadal in all three clay court Masters events, which he achieved in finals of Madrid (2011), Rome (2011) and Monte Carlo (2013). Djokovic is the player with the most clay-match wins over Nadal and the one who ended Nadal's consecutive run of 8 Monte Carlo titles in the 2013 final.
Djokovic is the only player to defeat Federer and Nadal in all four Grand Slams. He's also the only one to beat them in multiple Grand Slam finals, multiple Master finals and in the final of Year-End Championship. He is the only player to defeat Federer in three Wimbledon finals (2014, 2015 and 2019) and the only player to defeat Nadal in three different Grand Slam finals (Wimbledon 2011, US Open 2011 and Australian Open 2012, 2019).
