Serbia’s tennis star Novak Djokovic is often regarded as the greatest player in the history of men’s tennis in the singles category. He has won 24 Grand Slam titles in his illustrious career, most by any player in the singles category.

Despite achieving pretty much everything on the court, the 36-year-old can still add as many as 13 accolades before calling it off.

The first in the list features winning eighth Wimbledon title. Only Switzerland’s Roger Federer has won eight major titles in London.

Another achievement that Djokovic can unlock is improve his standings in terms of most ATP titles. Currently, he is third in the list with 98 titles, only behind Jimmy Connors (109) and Federer (103).

The Belgrade-born can also join the list of most US Open titles. He has won it four times. Only Pete Sampras and Roger Federer have won more with five each.

Djokovic can also become the oldest player to win a Grand Slam if he wins the US Open this year. Currently, Ken Rosewall holds that record as he won the Australian Open at the age of 37 years, 1 month and 24 days.

The Serbian tennis star can also become the oldest player to become the world number one in ATP ranking. Currently, Federer holds that record as he topped the charts at the age of 36 years and 320 days.

Djokovic can also become the player with the most wins in the Grand Slams. Currently, he has won 366 matches in the major event, just three behind Federer who has won most matches in the major events.

Another record Djokovic can complete this year is to become the player with the most appearances in the quarterfinals of the Grand Slam. He equalled the record of Federer of 58 quarterfinal appearances in the mega-event.

Some other achievements that can be unlocked by Djokovic are winning most Indian Wells titles, most Miami Open titles, most Grand Slam tournament appearances, Grand Slam matches and most wins in the Open era matches.
