Novak Djokovic, 36, has demonstrated that he is not yet prepared to hand the baton to the following generation.
The era of the Big Three in tennis may be coming to an end with the retirement of Rafael Nadal and the retirement of Roger Federer, but Djokovic, the final member of that triumvirate, demonstrated his continued strength. At the U.S.
Open, he defeated Daniil Medvedev 6-3, 7-6(5), 6-3 to win his fourth Flushing Meadows title and tie the record with his 24th Grand Slam victory.
It’s obvious that Djokovic wants to achieve even greater success in the game of tennis.
I sometimes ask myself, ‘Why do I need this still at this point after everything I’ve done, you know? Djokovic stated. How much longer do I want to continue? Of course, these are the questions that are on my mind.
I don’t want to get rid of this sport or leave this sport if I’m still at the top, knowing that I play at such a high level and win the largest championships in this sport.
On his way to the championship round, Djokovic defeated Ben Shelton and Taylor Fritz, two promising American prospects.

On his way to the championship round, Djokovic defeated Ben Shelton and Taylor Fritz, two promising American prospects. Then he faced the more experienced opponent Daniil Medvedev, who had before prevented him from winning the calendar Grand Slam. Seizing the opportunity, Djokovic outlasted Medvedev in exhausting rallies.
“My family and team were aware that over the past 24 hours, they should not approach me or talk to me about the history of the matter at hand,” he declared.
“I tried my hardest to keep things simple, to stay true to the routines that have helped me get to where I am, and to approach this match like any other where I simply need to win.”
In Australia, he equaled Rafael Nadal’s 22 major championships and set a new men’s record by winning Roland Garros. After losing to Carlos Alcaraz at Wimbledon, Djokovic began to consider a generational change, but he was able to temporarily cement his domination in men’s tennis with wins at Cincinnati and Flushing Meadows.
He remarked, “You know, players come and go. For me, the same kind of fate awaits. I will eventually give up tennis in roughly twenty-three or twenty-four years.
Additionally, fresh, youthful players will emerge. I suppose you’ll see me a little more often until then.
Another significant accomplishment in the illustrious career of Indian captain Virat Kohli is in the books. The outstanding Indian batsman has achieved a historic milestone in the T20 format: 12,000 runs scored.
At the opening Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at MA Chidambaram Stadium on Friday, Kohli accomplished this incredible achievement.
