Novak Djokovic achieved his childhood dream by winning his 24th Grand Slam title at the US Open. This victory matched Margaret Court’s overall record. In the men’s singles final, Djokovic faced Daniil Medvedev, who had previously defeated him in the 2021 US Open final. The match was intense, with Djokovic emerging as the victor with a score of 6-3, 7-6, 6-3.

The victory was especially meaningful for Djokovic as he had previously lost to Medvedev. Despite a close contest, Medvedev’s errors in the tiebreaker and a deflated performance in the third set allowed Djokovic to secure a commanding lead.

This win marked Djokovic’s fourth US Open title and made him the oldest male champion in the open era at 36 years old, surpassing Ken Rosewall’s record from 1970. Djokovic also surpassed Serena Williams with 24 major singles titles, making him the first player to achieve this milestone in the Open era.

During the trophy presentation, Djokovic expressed his joy and gratitude. He acknowledged the sacrifices made by his family, who supported him through difficult circumstances and wars in their country. Djokovic thanked his parents, wife, children, and team for their unwavering belief and resilience. He reflected on his childhood dream of winning Wimbledon and how it evolved into setting new goals to become the best player in the world.

Djokovic marveled at the remarkable and special achievement of making history in the sport. He never imagined standing there with 24 Grand Slam titles, expressing his gratitude for the journey and the people who contributed to his success.
