World no. 1 Novak Djokovic achieved two massive ranking milestones on Monday, passing Roger Federer and Ivan Lendl on the exclusive lists to add more honors to his already rich collection.
Novak became the first player with 311 weeks as world no. 1 since the start of the ATP ranking in 1973, leaving Roger Federer on 310 and securing one of his most desired achievements.
Alongside that, Novak is spending his 672nd week in the top-10, passing Ivan Lendl (671) and standing alone in the fifth place, only behind Roger Federer, Jimmy Connors, Rafael Nadal and Andre Agassi.
Novak cracked the top-10 following the Indian Wells final in 2007, two months before the 20th birthday, celebrating the title in Miami in his first event as a part of the elite company. The Serb remained in the top-10 until the closing stages of 2017 when he had to leave it due to an elbow injury, returning in July 2018 and staying there ever since.
Most weeks in the top-10 since 1973:
936 - Roger Federer
816 - Jimmy Connors
806 - Rafa Nadal
747 - Andre Agassi
672 - Novak Djokovic
671 - Ivan Lendl
816 - Jimmy Connors
806 - Rafa Nadal
747 - Andre Agassi
672 - Novak Djokovic
671 - Ivan Lendl

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
