Novak Djokovic Makes History: Joins Federer and Laver in Exclusive Club

Novak Djokovic capped his remarkable 2024 season with another milestone, securing his 17th year-end top-10 finish since 2007. At 37 years and nine months, he became the third-oldest player to achieve this feat, joining legends Roger Federer and Rod Laver on an elite list.

While 2024 lacked the blistering pace of his 2023 campaign—when he claimed his 24th Major title and cemented his GOAT status—Djokovic delivered when it mattered most. The highlight of his season came at the Paris Olympics, where he clinched his long-awaited gold medal, becoming the only player to win all 15 notable tennis trophies.

Despite setbacks, including an early US Open exit and runner-up finishes at Wimbledon and the Shanghai Masters, Djokovic’s resilience shone. His Olympic victory over Carlos Alcaraz in a gripping two-tiebreak final will go down as one of the greatest moments of his career.

As Djokovic eyes the 2025 season, the tennis world marvels at his enduring legacy. With Andy Murray joining his coaching team, fans eagerly anticipate what the Serbian superstar will achieve next. For now, Novak Djokovic remains a towering figure in tennis history, setting records and inspiring generations.
