Djokovic wimbledon 2022

Novak Djokovic captured the 2023 French Open trophy by defeating Casper Ruud 7-6 (7-1), 6-3, 6-5 in the final, and he has now made Grand Slam history. The Serbian star has reached 23 major titles, passing Rafael Nadal for the men's record. Djokovic laid on the ground for a few seconds after his win, then stood up and took in the Roland Garros crowd -- one that included plenty of celebrities including Tom Brady, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Kylian Mbappe. "I was a 7-year-old dreaming that I could win Wimbledon and become No. 1 in the world one day," Djokovic said after the match. "I'm beyond grateful and blessed to be standing here with so many incredible achievements. "One thing is for sure I feel I had the power to create my own destiny. I try to visualize every single thing in my life, and not only believe it but really feel it with every cell in my body." 🏆 Forever raising the bar 🏆 ⁰ Djokovic had tied Nadal on the Grand Slam list earlier this year after winning his 10th Australian Open. He is now tied with Serena Williams among men and women, and is just one shy of the overall record of 24 Grand Slam titles set by Margaret Court. "I just want to send a message out there to every young person. Be in the present moment, forget about what happened in the past," Djokovic said. "The future is something that is just going to happen. If you want a better future, you create it." Many congrats on this amazing achievement 23 is a number that just a few years back was imposible to thin...

Novak Djokovic defeated Nick Kyrgios 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (7-3) in the Wimbledon 2022 final on Sunday. This is his seventh Wimbledon title, and fourth consecutive. This was also his 21st major title, which puts him within one trophy of Rafael Nadal's record of 22. At 35 years, 49 days, Djokovic is now the second oldest player to win the Wimbledon men's title in the Open Era. Roger Federer's win in 2017 still makes the Swiss veteran the oldest. "My first image of tennis was grass and Wimbledon. I always dreamed of coming here," Djokovic said on Centre Court after the match. "Realizing a childhood dream and winning this trophy, every single time it gets more meaningful and special. I'm really blessed and thankful to be standing here with the trophy." During the first round of the tournament, Djokovic became the first player to win at least 80 matches in each of the four Grand Slams. He is quite familiar with Centre Court and the final round at The Championships. Sunday was his 32nd Grand Slam final and his eighth at the All England Club. He has now extended his Wimbledon win streak to 28 consecutive matches. "I'm lost words for what this tournament, what this trophy means to me, to my team, to my family," Djokovic said. "I've said this many times, it always has been and will be the most special tournament in my heart, the one that motivated me and inspired me to start playing tennis." Kyrgios came in with significantly less experience. This was his first Grand Slam final, but ...

Serbia's Novak Djokovic celebrates winning the Wimbledon men's title on Sunday — his seventh trophy at the British tournament. Alastair Grant/AP WIMBLEDON, England — Novak Djokovic waited. He waited for Nick Kyrgios to lose focus and lose his way. Waited to find the proper read on his foe's big serves. Waited until his own level rose to the occasion. Djokovic is not bothered by a deficit — in a game, a set, a match. He does not mind problem-solving. And at Wimbledon, for quite some time now, he does not get defeated. Djokovic used his steady brilliance to beat the ace-delivering, trick-shot-hitting Kyrgios 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (3) on Sunday for a fourth consecutive Wimbledon championship and seventh overall. The top-seeded Djokovic ran his unbeaten run at the grass-court Grand Slam tournament to 28 matches and raised his career haul to 21 major trophies, breaking a tie with Roger Federer and moving just one behind Rafael Nadal's 22 for the most in the history of men's tennis. Among men, only Federer, with eight, has won more titles at Wimbledon than Djokovic. In the professional era, only Federer was older (by less than a year) than the 35-year-old Djokovic when winning at the All England Club. His comeback on a sun-filled afternoon followed those in the quarterfinals, when Djokovic erased a two-set deficit against No. 10 seed Jannik Sinner, and in the semifinals, when No. 9 Cam Norrie grabbed the opening set. In last year's title match at Wimbledon, Djokovic dropped the ope...
