Djokovic holds his 10th Australian Open trophy

Novak Djokovic clinched his 90th victory at the Australian Open by advancing from the first round with a triumph over Dino Prizmic, securing a 6-2, 6-7(5), 6-3, 6-4 victory. The 10-time Aussie Open champion has now amassed over 90 Men’s Singles wins in three different Grand Slam events, with 92 at the French Open and 90 at Wimbledon.

It wasn't an easy match for Djokovic against the 18-year-old Prizmic, who saved six match points in the four-set duel, with three of the four sets lasting over an hour. ‘Nole’ praised Prizmic's remarkable performance, considering it was the teenager's first experience playing on such a big stage: “It was an amazing performance for a teenager who never had the experience of playing on such a big stage,” the world No. 1 said.

New record for Djokovic

It has become a routine for Djokovic to continually break records, especially in Grand Slams where he shines the most. His 90th triumph in Melbourne marks the third Grand Slam where he has achieved at least 90 victories, setting a remarkable record.

Australia is where Djokovic has enjoyed the most success with a record of 90-8 (92%), although he maintains similar numbers across all four Grand Slams, at least in terms of victories. At the French Open, where he has secured 3 titles, he boasts a record of 92-16 (85%), and at Wimbledon, he stands at 92-11 (89%).

Additionally, Djokovic has 88 victories at the US Open in 17 appearances (87%), putting him just two matches away from reaching 90 victories. This means he could complete the record by at least reaching the third round at Flushing Meadows, considering he has never exited the tournament before the third round in his career.

Federer and Nadal's Grand Slam victories comparison

In terms of Grand Slam victories, Federer excels in three major tournaments, with his highest triumphs in Australia (105), Wimbledon (102), and the US Open (89). The Swiss player holds the record for the most victories at both Wimbledon and the Australian Open, falling just one short of 90 wins at Flushing Meadows. His lowest Grand Slam victory count is at the French Open (73).

On the other hand, Nadal dominates with an incredible 112 victories at Roland Garros, surpassing the 90-win mark. However, his performance at the other Grand Slam events is not as prolific. The Spanish player has accumulated 77 victories in Australia, 58 at Wimbledon, and 67 at the US Open.
