Novak Djokovic one away from equalling grand slam singles record


Novak Djokovic moved a step closer to becoming the leading male player in Grand Slam singles history. The 34-year-old defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-7 (6-8), 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 to lift the Coupe des Mousquetaires for the second time and his 19th Grand Slam title overall. Federer has been the leader since overtaking Pete Sampras by winning the Wimbledon title in 2009. Nadal equalled Federer by winning his 13th title at Roland Garros last year. Undoubtedly the number one player of the last decade, Djokovic has won 18 of his titles since 2010. The Serbian is the only one of the top three to have won at least two titles at each of the Slams and will go into Wimbledon and the US Open as the favourite. "It was not easy for me, both physically and mentally," Djokovic said, "especially over the past two or three days.''
