Novak Djokovic Ties Margaret Court’s All-Time Record of 24 Major Titles with U.S. Open Win

Novak Djokovic of Serbia has won the 2023 U.S. Open men’s singles final, tying Margaret Court’s all-time record of 24 major titles. Djokovic beat Russian Daniil Medvedev in straight sets on Sunday, becoming the oldest man to win the tournament in the open era.

The match was an intense battle between the two players, with Djokovic emerging victorious with a score of 6-3, 7-6 (5), 6-3. Djokovic used every ounce of his energy and some serve-and-volley guile to get past Medvedev. The younger player was far from steamrolled, but there were moments when it may have looked as if Medvedev had the older body of the two, his legs cold and short a step.

Djokovic’s win puts him one major singles title in front of Serena Williams to become the first player to win 24 in the Open era, which began in 1968. His victory also fortifies his status as the athlete with the most men’s Grand Slam titles.

The 36-year-old Serbian athlete presented a master class on winning, his body never faltering, his resolve ice cold. Djokovic’s win is a testament to his greatness as one of the sport’s greatest players. His victory is sure to be celebrated by tennis fans around the world.
