WIMBLEDON 2023: NOVAK DJOKOVIC TO BREAK THE OLD RECORDS
As of this writing, Novak Djokovic is the only male singles player to have won the most Grand Slam tournaments.
The 36-year-old defeated Casper Rudd 7-6(1), 6-3, 7-5 in the French Open final on Sunday at Court Philippe-Chatrier in Paris.
Now, Novak Djokovic is all set to break the old record at the Wimbledon 2023 (itsaboutindia) championship.
All England Tennis Club 2023 Wimbledon starts on July 3.
World No. 2 Novak Djokovic will be the defending champion at the grass-court Grand Slam.
After defeating Australia's Nick Kyrgios in 2022, he achieved a record-breaking seventh victory.
Djokovic can match Roger Federer's record with one more win.
The records he broke are listed below.
Why Novak Djokovic is so important at Wimbledon 2023
Novak Djokovic is the player most likely to win this year's Wimbledon. From 2018 to 2022, he won the previous 4 Wimbledon Championships.
Overall, he won his fifth grass-court Grand Slam championship. Federer, who has won eight Wimbledon titles in the Open era, would tie the Serb one more time.
Federer won the Wimbledon championship in 2003-2007, 2009, 2012 and 2017.
In 2023, Djokovic did not lose a single Grand Slam match
As evidenced by his wins at the French Open and Australian Open in 2023, Djokovic is in incredible form.
His win-loss record in Grand Slams this year is 14-0. Overall, he had a strong start to the year, taking home the Adelaide International title.
In the final he defeated Sebastian Korda of the United States. Djokovic, who has won three titles this year, has a 31-4 win-loss record.
Djokovic can equal another record of Federer
Currently, Bjorn Borg and Federer share the record for most Wimbledon Championships wins in a row (5). Between 2003 and 2007, Federer won, while Borg did so between 1976 and 1980. With one more win this year, Djokovic can tie the knot with these legends.
If Noval Djokovic wins this year's Wimbledon Championship title, he will be level with Federer and Bjorn Borg. However, it won't make history but at least it will bring him closer to making history at next year's Wimbledon 2024.
Djokovic can compete on court this year
Djokovic won the 2023 French Open, giving him his 23rd Grand Slam win overall. He lost to Nadal, who has won 22 Grand Slams so far, as a result.
Currently the most successful men's singles player is Djokovic. She tied Serena Williams for 23 major titles at Roland Garros.

The former can emulate Court, who leads with 24 majors, at the US Open.
Djokovic's goal is the Grand Slam
In tennis, an annual Grand Slam is a significant achievement. As soon as a tennis player achieves 4 Grand Slam tournaments in a year, this happens.
Don Buzz (in 1938), Maureen Connolly (in 1953), Rod Laver (in 1963 and 1969), Margaret Court (in 1970), as well as Steffi Graf (in 1988) are the only players to have accomplished the feat.
The third male singles tennis player to achieve this feat is Novak Djokovic this year.
