"23 is a number that just a few years back was impossible": Nadal praises Djokovic after making history at Roland Garros
ATPMonday, 12 June 2023 at 05:00
Rafael Nadal congratulated Novak Djokovic after he clinched the 2023 French Open title.
Nadal's absence from Roland Garros prevented him from competing against Djokovic in the race for the most Grand Slam titles. A year ago, the Spanish player had reached 22 Slams, surpassing Federer (who was already retired at that time) and Djokovic, both with 20.
A year later, the tables have turned, and Djokovic secured his 23rd title, making him the male player with the most Grand Slam titles. For many, this achievement clears any doubts about the "Greatest of All Time" (GOAT), especially considering Nadal will not be competing this year and there is uncertainty about his form in his final year of competition in 2024.
At the moment, Djokovic remains the favorite in the upcoming Grand Slam tournaments and has a high chance of increasing his tally. Spanish player Rafael Nadal congratulated Nole on his achievement:
“Many congrats on this amazing achievement @DjokerNole 23 is a number that just a few years back was impossible to think about, and you made it! Enjoy it with your family and team!” Nadal wrote on Twitter.
After winning the French Open, Djokovic is not currently registered for any grass-court tournaments until Wimbledon. However, the possibility of receiving a wild card to gain momentum is always available for the all-time leader in Grand Slam titles.
