Novak Djokovic continue to chase record-breaking 25th Grand Slam in 2025

Serbia’s legendary tennis star Novak Djokovic continue to hold ascendancy in the race for most Grand Slams in tennis history. The 37-year-old is regarded as the greatest player in the history of men’s tennis in the singles category, having won as many as 24 Grand Slam titles.

No player in the history of men’s tennis has managed to win as many major titles as the former world number one. Not only that, but only one player in the history of tennis, both in women’s and men’s tennis in the Open era, has managed to win 24 Grand Slams, which was legendary Margaret Court. Therefore, if the Serb manages to win one more major title next title, he will become the player with the most Grand Slams in the history of tennis.
