When Djokovic lost to 20-year-old Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final it felt like a changing-of-the-guard moment in the men's game. As Djokovic celebrated his victory, he paid tribute to Kobe Bryant by wearing a “Mamba Forever” shirt bearing the NBA legend’s famous No 24. Bryant, who died in 2020, was a good friend of Djokovic. The champion then embraced his daughter, Tara, who sat courtside during the match. This was a kid who grew up playing tennis in an empty swimming pool and he became the greatest tennis player of all time. You can try to psychoanalyse all you want but the fact is he has put all the pieces of the puzzle together. He can't get any better." He's a genius," Ivanisevic said. "He's one of a kind. Not too many people in this world like him, sportwise. These are the moments and these are the kind of emotions that I motivate myself with every single day when I’m not playing a tournament,” Djokovic said. “Occasionally asking myself: ‘Why do I need this still at this stage after all I have done, you know? How long do I want to keep going?’ I do have these questions in my head, of course.

The odds were pretty much against me and my family. It was not accessible, not affordable, but I fell in love with tennis," he said. There is a little regret that I didn’t win that Wimbledon final. But, look, in the end of the day, I have so much more to be happier and content with than actually to regret something.” Djokovic said he came up with the idea about a week ago as a way to honor his friend. He said he received advice on his own career from Bryant, who died in 2020 in a helicopter crash that also killed his daughter Gianna and seven others. But Djokovic eventually got over the line to ensure a marathon set would be settled by a tie-break.Djokovic had only lost from a set up at the US Open once on 73 previous occasions, against Switzerland's Stan Wawrinka in the 2016 final. Djokovic offered to help up Medvedev when the Russian fell to the court in the third set I'm really living my childhood dream to compete at the highest level in this sport, which has given me and my family so much from difficult circumstances. This was Medvedev's fifth Grand Slam final, and he is now 1-4, with two losses to Djokovic and two to Rafael Nadal. Medvedev's one major victory came at that 2021 US Open. Further tears followed as he went to celebrate with his nearest and dearest, which included parents Srdjan and Dijana, wife Jelena, son Stefan - and Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey. NEW YORK -- Novak Djokovic defeated Daniil Medvedev 6-3, 7-6 (5), 6-3 on Sunday to win the US Open and claim a historic 24th major championship, matching Margaret Court for the most Grand Slam singles titles in tennis history.

Djokovic also pulled on a T-shirt which paid tribute to NBA legend Kobe Bryant, his friend who was killed in a helicopter crash in 2020 and wore 24 in his playing days. I focus on what I need to do and how I get myself in an optimal state so that I can win the biggest trophies in our sport. That's what I care about." I never thought I would be here but the last couple of years I thought I had a shot at history. Why not grab it when it is presented?" Djokovic, who surpassed Rafael Nadal's record tally of 22 men's major titles earlier this year, has matched Australia's Court at the second attempt after losing the Wimbledon final in July. It was the latest record-setting milestone for Djokovic, who was already atop the men's Slam list and has now moved one major singles title ahead of Serena Williams to become the first player to win 24 in the Open era. Court also collected a total of 24, but 13 of those came before professionals were admitted to the Slam events.Under the roof at Arthur Ashe Stadium due to rain earlier in the day, the capacity crowd, which included a lengthy list of A-list celebrities, showered Djokovic with a standing ovation at the match's conclusion. To make history [in] this sport is just something truly remarkable and special, obviously, in every possible way, in every possible meaning of the word," the second-seeded Djokovic said on the court following the win. "It's hard to describe the words." I would definitely sign right away the paper if somebody would tell me I would win three out of four and play Wimbledon finals,” Djokovic said.

While a rematch with the Spaniard in the final seemed the likely outcome for much of this tournament, revenge against Medvedev was sweet. In 2021, the last time Djokovic competed in New York, he came to the US Open needing the title to capture a calendar grand slam. Instead, he was humbled in straight sets by Medvedev in the final. Djokovic’s refusal to take a Covid vaccine meant that he was barred from travelling to the US for last year’s edition. BBC pundits hailed Djokovic's achievement with former British number one Annabel Croft saying fans had witnessed "something incredibly special". Djokovic faces Tsitsipas after the Greek world No 4 and the third seed held off a late surge from Karen Khachanov earlier on Friday, recovering to reach his first final in Australia and second grand-slam final overall with a 7-6 (2), 6-4, 6-7(6), 6-3 win. I never imagined that I would be here standing with you talking about 24 Slams. I never thought that would be the reality," said Djokovic, a 36-year-old from Serbia who became the tournament's oldest male champion in the Open era, which dates to 1968. "But the last couple of years, I felt I have a chance, I have a shot for history, and why not grab it if it's presented?"Djokovic has now won titles at exactly one third of the majors he has played in (24 titles in 72 major appearances). He has reached the final in exactly half (36) of the Slams in which he has competed. Djokovic said that his father was “misused” by the pro-Putin supporters. Djokovic Sr did not attend his son’s match against Paul, but Djokovic said he would like his father to be present for the final against Stefanos Tsitsipas on Sunday. “He was passing through, made a photo, it has escalated. He was misused in this situation by this group of people. That’s what happened,” said Djokovic.
